How Long It Will Take To Cure Fracture?
i had my wrist fractured how many days, my hand will become normal.
My left hand was fractured on 6.7.2012. Two bones were dislocated, and my hand was wrapped with plaster of paris. x-ray was taken yesterday, and bones are in position. and Dr. told me to continue the with plaster of paris for two more weeks. I want to know why he told like that and what is the reason behind it.
thanks.

Hi
Thanks for posting
It usually takes 4-6weeks of time for fracture to heal depneding on fracture pattern and other factors and requires roughly the same time for exercises to regain the lost movement.
