So it's 4 weeks since I knocked 2 bits of the end of my ulna off and partially dislocated my hand. They plated and screwed me back together, 2 weeks in plaster then 10 days in a splint which I've now weaned my self off.

I can move my fingers fairly well, making a tight fist is fairly tricky though and I have minimal movement of the wrist forwards and back and side to side.

Physios just suggested gentle movement in hot water and moisturiser on the scar to keep it supple. Thing is it's really tight and feels like it's restricting my wrist movement.

Anyone been in the same situation, any tips that worked for you?

cheers
