Fractures can occur in the wrist following a trauma or a fall onto your hand/wrist. Fractures can occur in any of the 8 small wrist bones, or the 2 bones of the forearm (radius and ulna). These types of injuries will require medical management, but once out of your cast/splint your therapist will create a treatment plan to reduce pain, restore range of motion and strength of your wrist, and return you to all your favorite activities.
