Weirdness
When I woke up Tuesday morning my left wrist was killing me. I didn't injure it the day before, I wasn't sure why I was in pain. My first thought was that I must have slept on it and it was stiff because of that. By Tuesday night it was obviously swollen and bending it hurt like heck. Wednesday morning it was black and blue with patches red. It is really looking ugly now but it doesn't hurt that bad.
I have no idea how it happened, I don't drink or do drugs and my memory is rock solid.
Could I have sprained it by sleeping on it? Has this or something like it ever happened to you?

The best I can figure is that during a nightmare I moved quickly and overstrechted the muscle group. I thought I had dislocated my shoulder when I woke up, but the stiffness in the following days was definitely muscle strain.
I recommend a gin and tonic - stricly for medicinal purposes - to ease the pain

The weird bruising is something more extreme.
You should have it checked out Rose.

And yes, you should go to a clinic just to be sure that it isn't a sign of something that might repeat or get worse.
A few months ago, I also found my left foot sore, feeling wrenched, with no obvious cause or precipitating incident; there was some bruising on the insole and inside of the ankle. This passed over in just a couple of days. My left foot is my "bad ankle" foot, tore the ankle up at age 15 and it never healed properly: foot has a tendency to "land stupid" when I'm walking and cause mishaps, etc. But in this instance I couldn't remember anything that caused the wrenching.
The Brown Recluse is pretty poisonous, though, so it was probably a less virulent type.
