While being tackled, a 20-year-old football player puts out his hand to break his fall to the ground.
 
  Because the intense pain in his wrist did not subside by the end of the game, he was brought to an emergency department where diagnostic imaging indicated an incomplete tear of the ligament surrounding his wrist joint. At the time of admission, his wrist was swollen with a severely restricted range of motion. What will his care team most likely tell the player about his diagnosis and treatment?
  A)
  This strain will likely resolve itself with sufficient rest.
  B)
  You've suffered a severe sprain, and you might need a cast.
  C)
  Your wrist contusion will have to be observed for bleeding under the skin surface.
  D)
  It looks like a mild to moderate sprain, and you'll need to keep it immobilized for a few weeks.
