wrist gave out...

[mayhems]

well bout 1-1 1/2 weeks ago my wrist gave out in a DB shoulder press and the weight fell to the ground... i hurt some muscles in my shoulder but it hasnt fully recovered... its better than it was couple days ago but its still hurting during workouts.. ive done some stretching and such but cant think of what to do to heal it... havent done any specific exercises on my shoulder either.. only light triceps/biceps and legs and abs...

any ideas besides seeing a specialist which is a worst case scenario if it not better in 1-2 weeks

A shoulder is nothing to mess around with and can potentially be made worse if you train an injury. I can't really make a call on how bad it is for you but if you are posting here you are obvisouly concerned so I'd err on the side of caution and give it some more time. It's not worth the chance of making an injury more severe. I had a torn labrum about 2 years ago (freak accident) damn thing took the better part of a year to get back to near 100%. Just not worth if for a week of training.
