Badly sprained my wrist at the bike park last weekend. ER discharge papers say 2-10 week recovery šŸ˜©

This was a few days ago. Slightly less swollen now. But still quite swollen and immobile. Taking my third day off work now, and wondering at what point ā€œunlimited PTOā€ isnā€™t.

Angry tendons under there. Wild to have huge living rubber bands making up our body.

Now I'm three weeks out from the bad wrist sprain. I can do most things, but some things are still really painful/impossible (e.g. chopping onions). And I'm at that part of recovery where the mind games about pain/recovery/reinjury come into play: If I overdo it, am I setting myself back? If I baby it, am I setting myself back?

Waiting for a phone call from occupational therapy to help me with recovery butā€¦ *cries in US healthcare system*
