first take a large bowl, buckket, container, something that can hold liqued, fill it with cold water. then get another bowl of ice, after you have the two bowls and a towel then put your wrist in the bowl of water, wait 5min then add the ice. endure for about 15min (if possible) dry off then wrap your wrist in an ace bandage, and after you have it wrapped , put it in a sprint. then for sleeping, take the bandage off and the sprint. if its really bad though, ice bathe it 2-3times per day, and sleep with the sprint on, but take the bandage off.

use a hot and could pattern. right after the injury apply a bandage and lay a ice pack over the injured area for about 20 min @ a time do that 4 about 2 days then start adding heat apply ice 4 about 20mins then heat 4 about 20 mins do this 4 a few days and while u are in school or out to keep it in a bandage or some kind of brace but wile you are not doing anything keep it elevated above heat level resting on a pillow way to tell if a wrist is sprained would be swelling lake of movement and other things like brusing but u dont always need to have theses sytoms 4 it to be sprained.

How can i sprain my wrist?

If you want to sprain your wrist take it from someone who has sprained their wrist like me. Get someone who can throw a softball REALLY hard and stand kind of close to them. Catch the ball and because of the force your wrist will bend back and it will cause a sprain. But my wrist really hurt when I sprained it so my advice is not to try to sprain your wrist on purpose.
