WHAT THE TEST MEASURES
About This Assessment
Is My Wrist Broken or Sprained Quiz - Symptoms and Signs
Review a wrist injury across 15 questions about how it happened, visible changes, hand function, pain, sensation, circulation, and wounds. This quiz is not a diagnosis and cannot determine whether your wrist is broken or sprained; fractures can look mild, while severe sprains may resemble fractures. A qualified clinician may need to examine the wrist and order imaging. Stop loading the wrist and seek urgent care for deformity, an open injury, uncontrolled bleeding, severe worsening pain, or fingers that are numb, weak, pale, blue, or cold.
