Hi captain 123

Thanks for the additional info. A small chip on the radius may be nothong but that doesn't rule out ligamentous injury or an an "occult scaphoid fracture" -ie one that was just not visble at the initial xray or the followup.

I am not trying to force you to see an orthoaedic surgeon and I can understand you reticence. The whole medical scene can be a bit intimidating and if ypu havealready seen a specialist you may feel a bit stupid going back or finding another for a further opinion. But if it is such a fracture it will not heal itself now - you may have a problem there.

However what I advised before - still stand by it. 4 months is too long. If you had fronted up to my clinic I would most probably get on the phone to a surgeon for you and organise it. However obviously I can't since you are not my patient.

So....I would look at it like this: you only get 1 body. Ther are no bionic wrists on the market - not since i looked lately anyway. So you will be living with that wrist for the rest of your life. Any physio, osteopath, or orthopaedic surgeon you visit won't be. You are lucky in that you live in a country where getting high quality help is won't necessarily cost you. You now know a bit more about what could be going on so I would suggest you stand up for yourself and insist on getting it properly investgated and don't take no for an answer.

But that is juat my opinion.
