How long do sprains take to heal to the extent that you don’t feel them any longer? A long fucking time. I fought a car at ETH Denver and earned a sprained wrist. I gave the PT very high, consistent daily attention for 5 months. I had ~90% range of motion back by 3 months. It’s now 8 months and it’s the first time I’ve been able to hold a handstand fully waited without pain, still at about 97% on recovery. No alcohol, great sleep and diet, no processed sugar, well hydrated, 8 months to < 100% Without attention and discipline, a simple sprain can become a lifelong injury

Actually it depends on the pressure of the sprain Can I know the impact caused ?

I was going about 25mph on my skateboard down a hill and a car took a not so sneaky right turn without looking. I saw it coming so i wasn’t blindsided or that likely would have gone worse

Okay the speed is a lil bit better might not get any worse atm So you need to keep massaging it lil by lil till you get little or no pain Get pain killers would help a lot Or if you could get a quick xray scan and a feedback would help

I appreciate the support, please don’t recommend to people to take pain killers, ever. This includes all NSAIDs. They have no beneficial value in the best case and are all downside in the average case. My post was about how long it takes to get to a recovered point while doing it all as correctly as possible.

About the pain killers I actually thought they were useful and helpful in a good way Definitely all drugs have their side effects I’d go do my research NSAIDS Thank you

Ncbi has a bunch of good research on the mechanisms of concern over nsaids. Pain killers are probably one of the worst inventions of humanity imo. They’re completely unnecessary 99.99% of the time but they get prescribed for literally anything and everything, what’s worse, is they all prevent your body from healing as it is designed to do. The only valid use case for a painkiller is when sleep is impossible, not hard but impossible, and only because you get more recovery in sleep.
