Twink not the best of news but it does seem there is no hidden unnoticed break.

Have you tried a heat pack to help with the pain. Ice is good for new injuries but heat can help with stiffness and pain.

Sorry to hear you are in the wars, hope you recover quicklly.

Have just seen the Physio who had good news and bad news!

GOOD
She told me that my wrist movement is good considering it is less than 8 weeks since the break. She also said that if there had been another broken bone it would have started to mend by now so, as it was in plaster, it wouldn't be causing me problems. The pain is most likely being caused by severe internal bruising and getting the muscles and other soft tissue to start working again!
BAD
It was a very bad break and diabetics take longer to heal, so it is likely to take 3-6 months after the break, before the pain disappears.... and I may need painkillers over that time. She gave me more exercises to do and I have to do at least some of them every 2 hours.She said that, in another 4 weeks, I may be able to reduce the painkillers but I should continue for another month because the anti inflammatory ones really do help with the healing process.


She said that the doctor at the fracture clinic was wrong in telling me it would heal in 3-4 weeks and has told me I can call her if I have any more concerns.
