    Re: Distal Radius FRX - 4 months healed - What does my MRI mean?

    hi there FireLikeIYA....
    how are ya?

    see first of all, forget that it`ll affect u at the age of 50 or so...

    Chondromalacia often strikes young, otherwise healthy, athletic individuals only...

    if ur doc said so, forget the doctor, maybe his experience is less, or maybe he is confused.

    u said that the affected part is wrist, so try keeping these things in mind...

    1) DO NOT immobilise ur wrist for long, u may go for stiff wrist...
    2) DO NOT overuse it also, as it may further deteriorate the condition...
    3) strenthen ur muscles, mostly ur forearm and wrist covering muscles so that they make counteract as ur helping aids for the joint condition...
    4) go to a different doctor, a wrist specialist if u can...
    5) have a sustained , prolonged , and not at all aggressive physical therapy, including NMES...

    u should be alarmed but not that much because this condition is almost affecting every young , athletic active individual these days...

    any further questions are welcomed...

    So is it possible that the chrondomalacia will go away? I currently do not use a brace but I have one. Should I bother sleeping in it or wearing it during the day? I feel a numbing sensation in my wrist but I am not sure if that is from the chrondomalacia or if my wrist is still aching from being broken.
