Piano Forum

Hey man, that sucks to hear. I understand your panic and I also think you will be fine.

I would first of all consult a doctor for the wisest course of action for healing your wrist safely.

Second of all, I studied piano in university, and I know some people who injured themselves in such horrible ways I don't even want to tell you what happened through insisting on practicing when they had some kind of injury/inflammation going. So please don't practice with an injured wrist. When your body tells you its in pain it's its way of telling you "hey, don't do that right now, it will be bad for us". It's important to listen to your body and let it rest and heal.

It's a good idea to play some left hand repertoire while your wrist heals. But do consult your doctor and avoid practicing with your right hand until you have gotten a professional opinion. There are real risks with practicing when it hurts that you should not f*ck around with.
