This happened to me, but from catching myself when I fell skating.
It didn’t hurt at all until I wondered why my wrist wouldn’t rotate and looked down. I saw this, then it started to hurt.
The best part was the skating rink trying to get me to retroactively sign a liability waiver, and me telling them I broke my dominant arm (I didn’t).
Well, the best part was the hospital refusing to set it, then the orthopedist refusing to belive the hospital didn’t set it, so I had to have it surgically set a week later.
Why would they refuse to set it? Your insurance wouldn’t cover it? Doctor without a clue? Shift change that left you between doctors in a room, alone, for 6 & 1/2 hours?

They didn’t have a pediatric orthopedist there, and for some reason that was necessary for a broken arm.
“We can’t jeopardise the quality of care we give this patient. So let’s not treat him!”
Fell of a bike, broke my radius head in the elbow and I am realizing now I was lucky.
