The back of my wrist on the outer side suffered a hefty blow in the summer (mid August).
Diagnosis: one of the smaller bones at the hand/forearm join on the little finger side of the wrist was cracked.
Months on and although assumed healed, it still swells up (and can ache/twinge a lot when it does), consequently making my wrist and hand difficult to use for some hours when it does swell up.
Swelling happens especially if standing about (blood pooling in hand?) or if overheating from exertion (hands being used as heat exchangers when body temp rises?).
Someone suggested it might go on for a year or two.

Do you think maybe it's not actually healed?

Any guesses as to how long I might have (or have to mitigate) the annoying swelling issues?
