Can't Post

Took a ground fall today, and landed on my wrist. My hand is slightly bruised where I put it out to stop my fall, and if I bend my hand down I can feel slight pain along the top of my hand/wrist.

It's no big deal, but I am supposed to be competing in a comp on Saturday. I sustained the injury this afteroon, and it already feels much better. I got on the hangboard for a few seconds just to see how it felt - I could do pull-ups and hang without feeling any pain, but it did feel a little weak still.

Does anybody have any advice for me when it comes to getting this thing taken care of before/during the competition on Saturday? Thanks a lot.
