Why I Feel Discomfort And Crackling In My Wrist?

I fell in 2011, fractured my wrist - a dustal radial fracture. I had surgery, it was fine after. Now its 2014, recently Ive been moving wrist and I feel some disconfort and crackling, almkst like there is air inside. I dont know if I damaged my wrist and it fractured again, or if it is a cyst. The middle of the wirst seems to feel uneven, not smooth. It doesnt hurt like a fracture, it feels like arthritis.

Physical Therapist or Physiotherapist 's  Response
hi,

thank-you for providing the brief history of you.

A thorough clinical Musculoskeletal exmaination is advised.

As you had fracture of the distal radius for which you were operated I feel not the problem is dude to muscle weakness and with simple exercise you should be alright.

Treatment:
In my clinical practice most patients post surgery needs physical therapy and they respond well.

I will advice you to undergo physical therapy and make the muscles of the forearm and hand stronger to avoid such muscle weakness and sgmtokms
