10 Symptoms of a Sprained Wrist
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
Symptom #10: Discoloration
People that have sprained their wrist will sometimes find that the area becomes discolored. This is often mistaken for a bruise which will appear similar in color, but it can sometimes be down to a different process entirely. Discoloration of the area around the injury can be down to the presence of proteins and fluids in the tissues around the injury.
This type of discoloration can indicate a worse than average sprain. This symptom is a sign that you should speak with a doctor if you haven’t already. The discoloration will go away in time as the injury is healed.
