A member asked:
Is it possible to have stress fracture in the wrist and be able to bend it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Let me explain: If you had stress fracture you will have pain, bruising, swelling and limited mobility due to the above. I believe you could move your wrist (with pain) but not normally while you have stress fracture.
