Hi there,

thanks for the reply and your advice,

the fixators have remained in my wrist, they will only have to be removed if there are any complications such as infection.

thanks again.

Hallo all,

Firstly wish to u a fast and full recovery.

Now i think u have to treat the symptoms u have as :decreaing the pain and
swelling(ice,elevation,crepbandage) ,give attention to ur wrist positions as it should put in a comfortable position through graduating it's positions from being with gravitiy then against gravitiy, give attention also to range of motions of ur right shoulder,elbow ,superior radioulnar joint,wrist and fingers ...,

U can use ultrasound in low intensities to promote healing,softening scar tissue and help in calcum deposition even being have an internal fixators.

Exercises in addition to the above post u can use a wrist mobilizers, hands of door to move it up and down.....

Hope this could help u!!

Regards
