I injured my wrist on friday, and i can;'t tell if it is a sprain or a fracture. my parents think it is just a sprain so they wont take me to a doctor to get a professional opinion. so, is there any way to tell the two injuries apart with out a diagnosis from a doctor?

depends what it looks like and how bad it hurts too! the bone could be even brusied and that really hurts really bad when that happens. Can't you take yourself to doctor or are you to young!
