What is a Wrist Fracture?
A wrist fracture occurs when one or more bones of the wrist joint break, most commonly the distal radius, which connects the forearm to the hand. This type of injury usually happens due to a fall onto an outstretched hand. Wrist fractures can range from minor cracks to severe breaks with displaced bone fragments.
Common symptoms include:
- Severe pain and tenderness in the wrist
- Swelling and bruising
- Limited movement of the wrist or hand
- Visible deformity in severe fractures
Treatment depends on the severity of the fracture. While minor fractures may heal with immobilization, displaced or unstable fractures often require surgical correction to restore proper alignment and function.
