You need to visit a reputable diagnostic center. Get a wrist xray done, AP and lateral, get it reported then see a surgeon with it. It'll tell u more than a subjective assessment. 1 Like |

Savemysoulnow: You had a bone break that affected your growth plate. Nothing the doctor could have done except explain that risk to you earlier. The fracture must have affected your distal radius growth plate but not your distal ulna. So your radius has stopped growing while your radius is still growing. It may get worse until you reach skeletal maturity (16 to 18 years old). After that, if the deformity affects how you use the wrist, you can get a corrective surgery to fix it. If you can use it effectively, forget any surgery and just ignore the bump. Can you post a picture of the wrist from another angle (camera looking straight at your opened palm and wrist) 1 Like |

solasoulmusic: Not a swelling. It is a growth plate injury. His distal radius has stopped growing while his distal ulna is still growing because he has not reached skeletal maturity. |

Seems your fracture wasn't reduced properly. Colles fracture. Go get an x-ray done. I doubt that's oedema. |

solasoulmusic: In that case growth plate explanation is not appropriate here because you have already stopped growing up at around 19 to 21 years latest. The correct explanation is that the fracture has been mismanaged and it has malunited. It is the radius bone that is usually involved in majority of cases. It appears it was not properly reduced in place or after reduction in Pop cast, it was unstable and displaced again, especially if the cast was loose. In my own environment many of such fractures are treated surgically within two weeks of fracture before malunion has started. As it is now, it depends on your pocket. If you have deep pockets, get an X-ray done and see an orthopaedic surgeon near you for advice. From my experience it is very difficult to deal with at this stage but it is possible with experience hand surgeon. Good luck. 1 Like |

this fracture( Colles Fracture) should have been manipulated and sorted out in theatre and not just by POP alone. Guessing from the pictures, i would say youre young (<60) . How long ago did you sustain this injury? Savemysoulnow: |

Op.. Hope the 'orthopedic doctor' you are talking about is a licensed one and not one of these traditional bone setters? You need to see a reputable doctor, have an X ray done and them and then have a the appropriate treatment option The fracture is malunited and you may probably end up needing surgery on that wrist |

Savemysoulnow: You must be tall then or probably have a dominant height gene in your family. By now, most of your growth plates should be closed. Keep an eye on it and take pictures every month to compare. It should not get worse than this. Important thing is that it is not painful. 1 Like |
