update?

@@joseruelmacatoljr228 it's alright now and i have been playing contact sports from the last one month

Are you okay now and any suggestions i got the fracture

❤

Sounds like you need to get it check out as it's not normal to get numbness. The cast can be too tight or causing pressure

How is your mobility now?

@@technowikinger523 got the strength back , but the extension in the arm isnt great , still going through physiopherapy at the moment as they are trying to straighten it still but i am not very hopeful tbh 🤷‍♂️👎

@@ianmeadows5565 Had a radius head fracture 10 days ago, 4 days ago surgery Mason 3 with 4 screws 2cm in the head . The Chirurg and doc say 14 days cast than I can start ex-flex movements in physio and another 14 days than I can start suprination and Pronation. I hope that isn't too late.

@@technowikinger523 honestly and truthfully , i still think that i need surgery , i hope you recovery goes well , i was told that i should of started physio sooner so if you can get that in place fast then you should be in good hands , for the record i only sustained a radial head fracture in my right arm so nothing compared to what you have had thats for sure.

😂😂🤦🏾

Not on your head. You may have the hair on your wrist shaved off to reduce the risk of infection if you have an operation. If you develop complex regional pain syndrome then you can also experience hair loss.

I broke my ulnar and radius( not very badly)and im still 17 year old will a surgery require for me im currently with a cast.. the hair i will lose won’t grow back or will grow after 7 months

The fracture will be visible on the xray for some time. If it is not painful you are safe to do physiotherapy. However you should be guided by the treating clinicians who have seen your xray.

@@fractureinfo thank you 😊

It can take many months - year for the fracture line to completely disappear. Safe to do physio once pain settling.

How is your hand now??

@@hollowinthecut7267 what about yours just removed splint my pinky feels weird cant bend yet and have a huge nuckle bro give me advise

Sorry to hear about your injury. Be guided by the improvement in pain rather than the x-ray. The x-ray will take several months for the fracture line to disappear.

@@fractureinfo when will i use my hand for casual works, like eating food, typing computer etc, 2months completed now, fracture line is visible, is it common, how many months its take to go off that fracture line on x-ray........

@@vijayramaraju3522 I think you need to be guided by your treating team. If the fracture has healed then you should be able to start to return to these activities.

Be guided by your treating clinician. In the first few days it can be painful to move the elbow so resting in a cast is appropriate for some patients. I agree that prolonged immobilisation in a cast will result in needing to do a lot or stretching exercises to get the movement back.

It sounds like you have a good doctor. I also broke the radial had three months ago and started physical therapy right away (after three days), but unfortunately, it was not intense enough. As of today, I can't reach my full range of motion. I highly recommend you fight the pain and work very hard, every day, if you want to achieve the full range of movement asap. Good luck!

@@niranturgeman2018 hi I have same injury .. same like thumbnail shown not really big .. but I can move my arm n everything it’s been 8 weeks now but will it recover fully like cartilage damage or something ..bone has filled up but I still feel when I try to straighten arm .. to 180• .. straight ..

This can be true, but it is guided by the pain levels experienced by the patient.

its definitely broken. i tried many solutions but none worked.its best to go to your doctor to see if its possible to fix it back or if surgery is needed.i had a surgery 3 days ago.5th metacarpal neck fracture.now im wearing a cast an two k-wires fixations in X position.and i also waited fro 5-6 days til i decided to check it by my doctor.my advice:its better to let pro's to fix it...to avoid later complications

Sir theek hua ki nahi

How is the healing going?

It is difficult to offer advice on this online. You should seek advice from your surgeon.

You have to avoid heavy weight , and keep close eyes to the range of elbow. Pain , check with Dr if you doubt any arthrose can be appear.

I had my radial head removed 2 weeks ago and can't fully extend and bend my arm. I also had hardware installed on my ulna. How are you doing now

now your hand is better?

wishing you a speedy recovery

Surgery is rarely required. If there is significant angulation (bend) whereby it would affect function, or the bone comes out through the skin, or if the finger is twisted the treating team might consider surgery.

@@fractureinfo it's cracked and lil bit out of the joint? What if I don't want to have surgery?? what's gonna be it's disadvantages?

@@sawwingyt2061 It is impossible to give advice over the internet without seeing the xrays and your hand. Unfortunately we do not offer this service. If the injury involved the joint itself then sometimes surgery may be advised to restore the joint surface. Ultimately this is your hand and the team treating you should advise you on the pros and cons of each option to allow you to evaluate these options and make an informed choice as to whether you would like surgery. Should you choose non operative management then this decision should be supported and the team will treat you as best as possible without an operation. I hope this is helpful.

@@fractureinfo i suffered a 5th metacarpal neck fracture and i waited for 6 days til i decided to visit my doctor.after the xray check where it was clearly a neck fracture...they decided that i had to undergo a surgery.and i had one 3 days ago...now im wearing a cast and two k-wires (X method) fixation.i didnt took it very serious at first cause i didnt felt much pain at the day of injury...only small swelling under my lil finger and hemaetoma on palm.and i could make fist and my little finger didnt curved as its usual by boxers fracture.it felt only stiff and with lil pain.no numbness either.thats why i believed that it was just a bruise and that its going away after few days but no...after i noticed when making fist that the 5th knuckle is missing and looking like a hole...which is also a sign of boxers fracture...i decided to visit a doctor.and sadly it was a boxers fracture.

@@sawwingyt2061 how is it man

Hi Maddy, if the wrist is still painful after 2 weeks it would certainly be worth going back to be checked out. A broken scaphoid can be difficult to see on initial xrays. Sometimes you can see it on a repeat xray as the bone is trying to heal. If the wrist is very sore and the xray is normal a MRI scan might be needed to check it out in more detail.

How are you today?

how did it recover?

After a year of working with resistance bands and mace, I’m able to extend it almost straight. Strength is about 90%. MRI showed it was broken worse than the orthopedic surgeon initially thought. Surgery may have helped but at 66, losing range of motion was a concern. Thanks for asking!

You're welcome 😊

I also had my wrist broken it affectided all my fingers in this case only you can make it better just moove your fingers with your other hand l at a Time bend it to your palm

I'll only use it 2 time and I can move hand

It needed me

I dont want to know all your secrets cause ill tell its hard enough being alone with myself, I dont know how long ill be holding on, I know you tried your hardest I know you meant well but you pushed me to the edge and I slipped and then I fell I dont know how long I'll be holding on

@@israel7811 you alr?

OMG right

this sounds unusual and we cant offer adivce online. the superficial radial nerve runs in this area and supplies sensation to to nail side of the inde finger and thumb.

it would be advised to seek medical attention and if necessary have an xray.

this is guided by your symptoms. generally 4-6 months following injury for these sports.

@@fractureinfo i have a distal radius fracture on my left arm, when can i start playing volleyball again? Im right handed

Hey, @@aguybeingadude9015 it will be around the 3-6 month mark for most injuries. Guided by pain really.

@@fractureinfo i see, i just got told by my doctor I’ll have my cast off in 3 weeks and depending on its wellness i can go right back to sports

@@aguybeingadude9015 be guided by your treating team. There is a difference between being allowed to do something, and being able to do something with minimal pain.

oh dear, sorry to hear that. hope you are on the mend.
