Specializes in Hand Surgery

2-3 months: Exercises can be started several days or several weeks after surgery. For the most part, the wrist becomes functional at 2-3 months following surgery. However, it is common to experience persistent stiffness and mild discomfort up to 6-12 months.

Wrist operation.: This depends on your health and the specific bone as well as the reduction achieved. In optimal conditions this is 6-8 weeks but it can take significantly longer in the range of 14 weeks.
