i never did like those darn bumpy trails...[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img]

 

By both I assume you mean the radius bones, which are the common ones to break. I broke the scaphoid (sometimes called the nevicular) which is a carpel bone. It's a hard bone to break because your hand has to be in a certain position and requires "a lot of trauma", to quote my Dr. It has a low blood flow, which is why it takes a lot longer than the standard 4-6 weeks. I've read of many cases where it takes 9 months. Unfortunetely, I've read more of those cases than ones that took 3 months. But my Dr. is pretty confident that it can heal in 3 months and that I won't need surgery because it's a pretty clean break that runs perpendicular to the bone and not at an angle. He said only a 10-15% chance I'll need surgery. That will suck too, because I'll spend the 3 months (maybe longer) in a cast and if it doesn't work, then surgery.

 

lol, yeah i'm not a huge fan

 

well i hope the best for you [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

is this gonna have life long effects? or does it look like u'll make a full recovery

 

actually i'm gona go enjoy the rest of the daylight while we still have it [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

i'll be back on later guys

 

hopefully, if I behave, it should be a full or near full recovery. I need to have fine motor movement with my hands. I'm an electrician, so I'm constantly using my hands in every kind of rotation you can. Especially when working with fire alarm and other low voltage with small wires. I've worked with wires almost as big as a mag lite too, but usually with that kind of amperage we just parrallel them.

 

mine needed sergury but nor its fine. Just gets tired faster than the other one, sort of like carple tunnel syndrom but not as bad.
