Could I need Physical Therapy?


Question:
My wrist it broken in 3 places, two cracks going across my growth plate on my Radius, and one V-shaped rack on the tip of my Ulna, I don't get my cast off for several more weeks, but do you think I could be subject to physical therapy once it is off? It was a pretty bad impact. (rockclimbing)

Answers:
i absolutely think you could benefit from PT. PT will help to strengthen the muscles surrounsing your broken bones, which will hel pto stabilize your bones. they can also teach you new ways of doing things, such as climbing or grabbing. i would definitely ask your doctor for a referral to a PT after the cast is off.

Other Answers:
Yes, you will need PT, but take it easy, it is for your benefit.
