[Jesus Rojas]

To my knowledge it just cause pain and it can be healed, but if you don't take care of it, it could evolve to a big problem like chronic tendonitis or it could tear.

I was in the same position as you and made the mistake of continuing one arm chin up progressions which I was no way near ready for.

 

The best advice is simple - Rest and rehab.

 

If any strength work is to be done, it is to be done light with moderate volume. I focused a lot on finger and wrist strengthening to ensure there was blood flow coming down the arm, although I only did exercises that did not irritate it i.e. fingertip planks, wrist extensions w/ dumbbell, and other wrist prep exercises such as backhand push ups. 

 

Take my word seriously - It is better to rest and recover early so you can begin training earlier than if you were to continue training until you ended up snapping your tendons.

 

You can find many wrist exercises over the internet including this forum.

 

Also, when recovering I tend to avoid any foods that have inflammatory factors, such as gluten which can impair your recovery (forget the recent research into how glutens negativities is empowered through psychological thoughts because that doesn't stop the physiological effects. This also gives you the advantage that you know you are progressing in something while you rest up i.e. improved diet.)
