I fell in 2011, fractured my wrist - a dustal radial fracture. I had surgery, it was fine after. Now its 2014, recently Ive been moving wrist and I feel some disconfort and crackling, almkst like there is air inside. I dont know if I damaged my wrist and it fractured again, or if it is a cyst. The middle of the wirst seems to feel uneven, not smooth. It doesnt hurt like a fracture, it feels like arthritis.
hi,thank-you for providing the brief history of you.A thorough clinical Musculoskeletal exmaination is advised.As you had fracture of the distal radius for which you were operated I feel not the problem is dude to muscle weakness and with simple exercise you should be alright.Treatment:In my clinical practice most patients post surgery needs physical therapy and they respond well.I will advice you to undergo physical therapy and make the muscles of the forearm and hand stronger to avoid such muscle weakness and sgmtokmsRegards Jay Indravadan Patel
