What is a wrist fracture?



A wrist fracture is a break in one of the bones at the wrist. This can include the distal ulna and radius or the proximal row of carpal bones as these are the bones which form the wrist joint. Wrist fractures will be immobilised for a period of time whilst the bone healing process finishes. Physiotherapy plays a vital role in the rehabilitation of a fractured wrist. Physio.co.uk has qualified physiotherapists who specialise in orthopaedic rehabilitation.
