The pain is only located in the bony part I mentioned. When I press under that bony circular bone, it hurts just like as it would if I was rotating my wrist. I made a fist with my thumb buried just as you said. When tilting my fist (with my thumb still buried) downward, the sharp pain comes about. Tilting, I mean having my fist pointed straight forward with my thumb buried and "rotating" it to the right and the sharp pain appears a bit before I hit about 90 degrees. Rotating left about 90 degrees does hurt, but not as much (of course 90 degrees is far as I can rotate without rotating my entire arm). Not 90 degrees exactly, just from what I can perceive as 90, maybe it's more like 60 degrees?

When trying my right wrist, everything is fine and no pain on my right wrist whatsoever.

I did notice when I put pressure on my left wrist the sharp pain comes about. In terms of pressure, I mean putting my left hand flat against the wall and pushing on it. Thanks for the quick reply too
