Here is a picture of my arm in case you haven't got a closer look. The story began 2 years ago when I worked at my previous company. My work station was not exactly ergonomic so at the end I insured my wrist. The injury was so great that for months I couldn't move my wrist, fingers AT ALL. It was literally paralyzed. After 2 months of physiotherapy without success and over $300 spent, I turned to acupuncture. It took another 2 months before my wrist started to become functional again. By the time I could use it to drive and eat half a year had already passed by.
Since then my right arm had always been weak but pain had subsided. I tried to exercise it whenever I can but still it showed exhaustion very frequently. 2 weeks ago I was half asleep trying to complete some on going projects before lunch at work. By accident I didn't place the heavy duty 3 hole puncher safely on the desk before pressing on it. It felt hard on my wrist along with the strength I exerted supposedly to punch holes on the document. After this incident my wrist started to hurt almost everyday again. I was hoping with enough rest it would heal eventually. However just yesterday I injured it again. While driving to work few cars in front of me stopped abruptly. To avoid collision I had to do a quick turn on the wheel to go on the shoulder lane. That quick movement was proved to be too much for my already injured arm. At that point I knew I had to go see a doctor again. This time I decided to visit a massage therapist, the chinese type.
Hopefully my wrist will heal quickly. I can't afford to be armless again for yet another summer. It would be a shame if I can't hand pick my own crops!!! >__<
