Smashed a 2 inch section clean out of my left radius 2 years ago in a motorbike crash. Amongst other things.
One end healed after metalwork inserted, the other didn’t so finally 3 months back my consultant (after me pushing and pushing) agrees to re-operate.
Feels the strongest it has for 2 years but my wrist is taking a lot of time and pain to get the range of movement back. It was fractured also in the original accident and hasn’t take too well to being immobilised for approx 8/9 weeks.
That’s what’s holding me back now.
Good luck to your mate. A good physio makes all the difference.
