Re: Broke my f'ing wrist

It took mine 3 months. Once it has healed a good bit ask for a soft cast so you can massage your wrist and beging to move it. Other wise you could loose some movement

Re: Broke my f'ing wrist

Well, I went down 4 weeks ago and had a really bad sprain. And I still can't put a lot of pressure on it. I'd say you better take it easy for a few months.

Re: Broke my f'ing wrist

Shattered mine back in '04 in a wheelie gone wrong. Didn't do enough therapy and I still have complications today. Follow docor's orders and let it heal properly and do the therapy if you need it. I got about 85% mobility and always have to wear a wrist guard when I ride now.

Re: Broke my f'ing wrist

listen to these guys. i broke mine 7 months ago, it took 4 months to get like 85 percent mobility back. i still have pain, and clutching is a bitch. it SUCKS. its probably never going to go back to normal. do physical therapy. i had no insurance, so i didnt get anything. they just xrayed me said "yep its broken. that'll be 2500 dollars! have a nice day" and kicked me out of the ER. lol.

Re: Broke my f'ing wrist

busted my left wrist (scaphoid and radius) last year, drunk snowboarding was a bad idea, took three months in a full arm cast and 1 month in a short cast. I got 100% movement back though

I still feel it(6 years later). I was a dumbass. Do what the Dr. tells you and do the PT

If it is your scaphoid They keep you in a cast alot longer cause it can mess up your blood flow If it does not heal right Good luck Hope you dont have to get cut on. i was lucky and mine healed right.
