Broken Wrist - Surgery - Fractured Scaphoid

This was a video i never thought i would make. However it happened and i search videos on people experience on youtube and i couldn't find any. Do i get surgery or do i let it heal on its own? I chose surgery. Here is my experience.

Four weeks out from ORIF on my right scaphoid. Had a break in distal tubercle and proximal head. One month in a cast, then surgery, then a splint. I am worried that my ROM will not come back. I watched your video before my Surgery, and it was ver encouraging. I just rewatched it and I am so glad I did because I have been obsessing over the “lump” on the top of my wrist. I feel reassured, now that this is probably normal. I start PT tomorrow and I cannot wait to get this going.

[@Fondrom]

How is it going

[@NVK85]

My scaphoid consolidated in 8 weeks after surgery. Mine was broken to 4 pcs, 2 small pcs were removed and 2 was united with a screw. Now i'm recovering my wrist range of motion too. My surgery was in the end of May and today 23 of August and i got maybe 50% range of motion back. I'm 35, never broke bones before too. It is good that you rejected long immobilization with a cast. It is very very very hard to return full range of motion after such long immobilization of elbow and wrist.

[@hendrixcrossan9104]

I just had surgery. And I learnt the hard way, get it checked as soon as it happens. I fell of a ladder in jan 10 months ago and only got it xrayed last month. Now its gonna be in a cast for 6months When it happened it was actually my first day on the job for a carpentry apprenticeship. And when it happened they wouldn't fill out an incident report. I told them what happened and was in alot of pain but they told me to just go home. I wasn't an official apprentice and felt the pressure, like everyone depending on me to get this job. So when they asked me if I can still work I told them yes and continued to work for another 8 months. I quit because they weren't good people to work for and decided to get my hand checked out. Turns out my wrist was broken all this time and because it was left so long, had to have a bone graft and screw.

[@TigranGertz]

Oh wow, I'm sorry that wasn't taken care of earlier but I'm glad you got yourself out of there and that you are on a path of recovery, hope you stay well brother

[@user-dd1bb4tw4r]

I went 2 years with my scaphoid snapped in half because doctor missed the break they said it was just sprained. Had this surgery 15 years ago and dealt with it my entire adult life now in my 30s. Was in a cast for 6 months as well. Just stretch stretch stretch and give it time you'll get 90% mobility back. You'll also have mini pains the rest of your life. Sorry for the crap news.

[@sunflowers730]

Dude! I did an almost identical fall on July 16! Only I was climbing down from our truck camper and missed the step. Difference is I sat up and looked at my hand and immediately knew I had broken my wrist. My hand was in a misaligned position, my fingers were curled, I couldn't move them, and the pain was so intense that I threw up. Went to urgent care, ( this was on a Sunday). They xrayed and immediately sent me to the ER because a bone was literally where it shouldn't be. At the hospital I found out I had a displaced scaphoid fracture. They did an internal reduction, splinted it and referred me to a hand surgeon. Ten days later I had surgery and now I have a plate and pins holding my wrist together. And I'm a post menopausal 58 year old woman, so this healing is gonna be slooowwww.😢

[@GMiller75]

my first break was also my wrist. Was relearning to ride a bicycle after 25 years. Had managed to go around the carpark but steering was wide. Took it out the next night (had double shift and only quiet time at carpark is after 10 but it's well lit) and went along the path by the carpark. Steering went all over the place and as i tried to straighten I just made it worse. Tried pulling the brakes but kept turning the gears instead. Managed to stop but fell to the side. Put hand out to stop the fall by grabbing onto the bushes but it went straight through and landed hard. Head bounced off the ground. Expected my helmet to have cracked it was so hard, but it held up. Knew straight away something was wrong as hand and wrist felt like a dead fish. Pain was at a 7 by the time I got in touch with the medical team (NHS24) but had to wait 10 hours before being seen at the minor injuries department. Turned out I had not only dislocated my hand but had severely broken my wrist in several places. Had my bones reset the next day under local anesthetic and sent home in a cast. Week later went back and was told it hadn't set properly and was still shifting. Best option was to have a plate inserted. Given this was my dominant hand I went ahead. Has been a week since surgery. Wrist still stiff but slowly getting more movement with my fingers. Biggest challenge is building strength as the pain kicks in if I overuse my hand. Changing dressings daily and the gauze over the incision site is now sliding so hopefully that will fall off naturally next time I clean the area. I also have a splint that I wear daily to keep it immobilised while healing but luckily it can be taken off for cleaning the wound.

[@lachlangooch1040]

Yup! Broke mine in a fight 2 years ago didn’t even know, had pain but kept on working as a carpenter. Got sick of it, got it checked out, half scaphoid has lost all blood supply and need a bone grapht. So 3 months post surgery now, 2 screws in my wrist, only allowed to move it very slightly without the splint on! But healing well, my advice to anyone out there, get it fixed ASAP! Otherwise it just gets worse, surgeons next option was to fuse my wrist. Good luck!

I’ve been doing vitamin d3 > k2 > magnesium and have seen large improvements in my strength and managing inflammation in my wrist. The best advice I can give is to wear your cast longer or keep your wrist in a stable position for as long as possible.

Thanks for sharing! I haven't broken anything but this is good to know😊

[@newmusic347]

What type of surgery was it? the one they cut your skin or they just made a little hole? Thank you for sharing.

I did some similar shit as a kid, my dad built me a half pipe, the first day I was sitting on a chair at the top, chair slipped I fell off and compound fracture broke my arm, bone almost sticking out, had to wait 6 months to use the damn ramp 🥴

Hey man how long did it take to get back to normal? Also what kind of surgery did you get?

[@ya3goubalbshayer650]

Hello brother Hope your doing good I just have a question after the surgery can you go back to weightlifting? And doing push-ups?

[@TigranGertz]

Not right after the surgery you will need time to heal, but once your wrist is fully healed after some physical therapy, you should be good

[@Nontwe_zinhle]

This was really helpful.. I just fractured my wrist this September I has surgery but I keep wondering if I'll be able to bend my wrist like I use to.. And how long that would take.

[@onehandedbandit3944]

Just had my pins removed yesterday, for a torn ligament and dislocated lunate bone from a motorcycle crash😑😑.. physical therapy starts next week

[@TigranGertz]

good luck with the ligament, but the bone heals fast!

[@paulwhite9848]

Shit happens T Glad you’re doing better

[@vinnypinatelli221]

I broke the same bone but when I broke my first bone at 29 I broke 5 total now and I'm only 32 now its crazy

Going through the same thing right now but wondering how quickly it healed after surgery till u filmed this video u made

[@nimsherpa6236]

About to have a scaphoid surgery myself. I broke it while playing soccer. How is the healing process like? I wonder if it will ever go back to normal. 😬

[@jackheinemann8780]

The day before the first day of year 12 (final and most important year of schooling in australia), this chick in a bunch of my classes fell off a rope swing and broke both of her wrists. She was in 2 full casts for months. Fat rip. I used to ride my bike to school, fair ways and everyone knew I did it. On the day I was due to give my school captain speach I came of and broke my collarbone, it was a nasty break aswell.

[@J_mur]

I’m currently dealing with this, I just got out the cast and I have no movement but it will for sure be back it’ll just take a while. It’s also crazy listening you your experience because mine wasn’t just a crack, I popped a hole in it and was in a cast for about 2 1/2 months

[@TigranGertz]

how did that happen?

[@Hookayourdad]

How is your scaphoid now ? How long did it take until you started doing things ?

[@raghavagrawal4861]

Going through the same thing. Can you help with all kinds of the exercise you did to get it back to normal.

[@mandyronald8187]

how are you doing now ? did they ever take out the screw . Am going for min tomorrow

[@aosaos6821]

Tea my rust tuk three years to heal on its own similar injury rust still isn't 100 percent but very close four years later lol

Some actual physical work could’ve prevented that you’ll have more bone density.

[@LuisEnriqueRubioChavez]

Well technically he does work out his wrist a lot... by counting all that money! 💰 🤙

[@jj_coast9088]

Got my surgery. Been in a cast for 3 months now. Looks like it isn’t healing 💀

You have a bionic hand. Dang

[@jmccauley6568]

Isn’t your philosophy when things break get rid of it for a new one? Bro, you need a new wrist.

[@TigranGertz]

Hahah

[@eltanobonillan8547]

I fall the same way and have the same injured when iwas younger

[@penman4789]

Can you now use it as much as your other wrist, like picking heavy stuff up, or can you feel that it is weak?

I think I broke this bone a week ago just walking and tripping. I’m 48 though.

[@marcelinaliebner343]

Thanks for sharing:)I broke mine Scaphoid 3 weeks ago. I wonder if you have removed the screw and if it is back to normal. I have heard that after scerws removal it is another few weeks to let the wholes in the bone fill in.
