Any tips on nursing a fractured wrist?

I found out it was broken about 35 hours ago, and now I have a cast/sling. Any tips on how to keep it from hurting, out of trouble, etc.?

    Who's your Daddy?

    Ask him! (After all -- he's a doctor)

    But seriously - for the most reliable, up-to-date, and objective information of this sort, it's much better to go to one of the many medical information websites, such as:

    1) eMedicine.com

    2) WebMD.com

    3) MayoClinic.com

    4) Medscape.com

    5) RevolutionHealth.com – this site seems particularly oriented toward answering practical questions, like you raised in your entry.

    Good luck with this...(Dare I say: "Break a leg!" ?)
