hi After Fracture of distal radius , it is very common to have stiffness like you have with difficulty in rotation. In my practice , I start the patients on early physiotherapy , Pain killers+ hot fomentation and local application of analgesic cream.Most importantly exercises for the wrist should be started vigorously as early as possible .
