I woke up yesterday morning with a swollen spot on the bottom of my left wrist. There's some slight bruising around the exterior of the swelling (which is in an oval shape, about 1 1/2" long). I feel pain shooting up the top of my wrist, and a lot of tingling/numbness near my pinkie finger.
I have been using ice and ibuprofen, and that helps a little. Just a little. I woke up this morning and it hurts even more.
Typing with one hand really sucks. My left wrist is on ice while I type this with my right hand.
I have to go back to work on Tuesday, where I am responsible for maintaining the database. Lots of typing at that job. Yikes.
And I can't afford to have any more medical bills currently, and I know if I saw a doctor, my mother would give me a ton of grief about how I am doing nothing but adding to my debts.
So, that's my dilemma. Lovely, huh?
