Distal Radius Fracture

I'm home again, now with a big ole cast on my right arm. It's uncomfortable but not really painful unless I accidently bump or twist my arm.  The surgeon put a plate with screws in to keep it connected.   Who would have thought a simple fall would result in this? Maybe I need to slow down and be more careful.

Poor old you. I do sympathise as I had the same thing quite a few years ago. Funny how when we fall we stick our arms out to break the impact, even while knowing that's not such a good idea. Do hope you heal quickly and well.

OMGosh!! It's ridiculous how a fall can do so much damage. There is something about looking at xrays that fascinates my husband. He has RA pretty badly and has received lots of xrays on discs that the looks at on the computer then takes a phone pic so he can show them to anyone that will look. Do you think that's weird?, lol.
Merry Christmas. Nothing to do about that break but heal!!
xx, Carol

Oh my goodness, Pamela! I hope your arm is healing quickly and you'll be back to normal soon. But do be careful and maybe slow down a little, lol!
