    Suzie,

    There isn't really much they can do for fractures.
    If you suspect your wrist is fractured, I really would recommend you getting it x-rayed. My partner is an orthopaedic surgeon (who specialises in hands) and leaving a fracture is one of the worst things you can do; they are always easier to fix before the body begins to heal itself. It's certainly NOT true that nothing can be done for a fractured wrist. I certainly wouldn't recommend riding on it. You really don't want to set yourself up for a recurrent problem that might have been treatable.

    Hope you're feeling better soon.
