Back in October I broke my right hand pretty badly, and I was told that I was pretty much at the half way point of needing surgery and not needing surgery. Well, I chose no surgery. This past week, my hand has been hurting pretty badly again....especially when I type and drive (i guess i hold the wheel the wrong way).
Any recommendations on some good pain relieving methods? I dont want to take medicine and my health insurance ended last Tuesday when I turned 22. |

Get one of those wrist supports for when you type. If you don't have one already, I'd suggest a very comfortable keyboard as well (with proper wrist curvature and all that).
Also, do some slow finger, hand, and wrist movements/stretches a few times a day. Get one of those 'grip resistance' training things to help build up some additional strength in it. -------------------- |

In reality I'm not entirely certain but I'd see a doctor as soon as you can afford it. I'm going to quote this again in all seriousness. Zach and Jonathan offer decent short-term solutions but if you've broken your hand before and its hurting in the same place it will persist until you get professional assistance. |

if you cause a car wreck that appears to be the other person's fault.... eh, i should probably stop there. insurance fraud isn't looked too kindly upon in my near-future line of work.
