A member asked:
Why would i have to have my wrist re broke if it wasn't caught in time. why is the condition so serious. and it's serverely misshaped and bent. ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Healing: If a wrist fracture is not treated early, it will start to heal in its current alignment. And if that current alignment is misshapen and bent, then the only way to restore normal alignment is to re-fracture the healing bone and then re-align it.
