Wrist injury

A few weeks ago i injured my wrist on my drawing side (i think i strained a tendon or smth) and its been mostly ok after the first few days where it was really painful, but today it really hurts again. Any twisting motion is painful and i cant lift much. I have a wrist brace to wear but it doesnt do much because the painful thing is when the forearm twists and it only stops be bending my wrist not twisting my arm.
I know i shouldnt be drawing to let it heal so it doesnt become a permanent injury, but i gotta work because thats my only income :( I've already lost a month of income due to various reasons. Thankfully some friends have sent a bit to help keep me afloat but this month is still gonna wipe out my savings.
I'm scared.

You might want to consider having it looked at just to be safe. I tore a tendon in my wrist and while it doesn't bother me much it does start to hurt when I hold a writing/drawing utensil for an hour or 2. It also aches when it gets really warm.
