My Sister has a L Proximal, Comminuted Radius Fracture. (This was from a backward fall from her truck. (She is an Over the Road Truck Driver). She is s/p reduction and is in a splint. No cast or surgery. There is a small piece of bone clearly seen on the x-ray and there will no removal of that piece of bone? Why not?
Hi Hope this message finds you in good health. I have gone through the complaints and understand your concern. Communited fractures in this region are generally tackled by splints, plasters or surgery, depending upon the severity. The small piece, if it's in the joint, it has to be definitely removed for sure. I suggest u see a good orthopedic and get it treatedNothing to worry about. I hope your question has been answered. If you have any follow-up queries, feel free to consult me anytime. Thanks, Take care, God bless.
