A member asked:
After a wrist fracture and disclocation will i ever recover my flexibility.?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unfortunately, no: True fracture dislocations of the wrist severely damage many ligaments. Ligaments will heal with scar tissue that is not as mobile as the original ligaments. But, you can get the best motion possible by doing therapy and exercises. Follow your hand therapist's advice.
