I moved my bag to that hand yesterday when getting stuff out of the car and couldn't believe how much it still hurts after two weeks.
My son broke his at school (they kept him there all day & made him write with that hand) and when I went to collect him at 3pm could see he was in agony/grey. It took approx 6 weeks to fully heal. He also fractured the ulnar(?)

It's fine now - he plays in goal for his football team!

Broke it slipping over in the playground at the start of school.

Take care. wishing you a speedy recovery.
