Tim-Hill..Yeah Mate Posted September 13, 2006 Report Share Posted September 13, 2006 about 5 days ago i put a nicee fracture in my wrist from trying to lunge a gap acros a little brook, it wasnt even big but my front wheel just dropped, sending me into the brook and hitting the bank on the other side! and at the same time I land with my left hand under my cheast and upside down! Wasnt actualy too painfull til a few days later... got wrist x rayed and hospital said... fractured colles bone and suspected fractured scaphiod bone! If my scaphoid is broke then it could be 2-3 months in a cast (which will totaly suck!) but at the moment it stands at 4-6 weeks finding out final aswer on monday at a specialsit fracture clinic.my x rays! http://www.putfile.com/pic.php?img=3387621 http://www.putfile.com/pic.php?img=3387622 http://www.putfile.com/pic.php?img=3387623 http://www.putfile.com/pic.php?img=3387624anyone else done the same thing or had a nasty injurie?Tim.

I've broken plenty a toe, the most recent time being the worst, and I was on the bike in like 1 week. Walking, that's a whole other story.

Takes up to 6 weeks for any break to heal... just because it doesnt hurt anymore, doesnt mean its fixed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
