Will a fractured hand ever be the same again?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes: A fractured hand that is set properly and monitored closely should heal well after 6 weeks. More severe fractures may cause some limitations in strength and motion, depending on how they are treated and where exactly the fracture is located.
