\u00a0\u00a0Causes, symptoms and treatment methods<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The wrist consists of eight small bones attached to the radius and ulna in the forearm. Any of these eight bones may be broken. What are the causes of wrist fractures? What are the symptoms of infection? How can it be treated?<\/span><\/p>\n

Causes of wrist fractures<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The most common causes of wrist fractures include:<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Direct trauma resulting from falling on the hand while it is \u201cspread\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Osteoporosis, which leads to a lack of bone density, which leads to it being easily broken.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Symptoms of wrist fractures<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The most common symptoms of wrist fractures are:<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Sharp pain in the wrist joint.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Swollen wrist.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Arthritis.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Obstructing normal joint movement.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Diagnosis of wrist fractures<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When wrist fractures occur, the aforementioned immediate symptoms appear, which requires consulting an orthopedic doctor and having the injured person undergo a clinical examination and x-ray examination to determine the location and type of fracture. Based on the type of fracture, the appropriate treatment method is determined.<\/span><\/p>\n

Treatment of wrist fractures<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Treatment for forearm fractures includes splinting, plastering, or surgery depending on the severity and location of the fracture. Physical therapy to rehabilitate the joint after healing is an integral part of the treatment.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Some wrist fractures may impede blood flow to that area, which poses a significant risk to surrounding tissues, so doctors may place a piece of bone taken from elsewhere in the body (bone graft) to help wrist fractures heal.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In some cases, it may be necessary to fuse a number of joint bones together if the bones do not heal by the methods mentioned above.<\/span>
