A member asked:
Proximal pole scaphoid fracture in my left wrist. previously had one a year back and was told it has healed. what do i do?

More tests: It would be important to know if your original fracture just never healed or if it is a new fracture as they would be treated differently. A C T scan would usually be able to differentiate between the two.
