Wrist pain since one month. Treatment!

Looking at the history given by you and assuming that you are unable to seek medical care due to corona virus lock down I am giving my opinion. The pain in your mother's wrist can be due to weakness of bones due to age or arthritis. She needs to get examined by an orthopaedic surgeon and get an X-ray and blood investigations.

Blood investigations that need to be done are CBC, RA, CRP, Serum vit D, serum creatinine, liver function test. Review these reports with an orthopaedic surgeon or consult me with reports directly on Practo
