| hasbeenish | 39 days | lack of skill caused it.... overworking it certainly doesnt make it heal quickly... one day of intense stretching of the wrist made it completely mobile in 72 hours | details |

| jys | 42 days | Efter 6 v. Fortfarande stelhet och klarar inte helt att komma till extremlägen, men rätt ok rörlighet. Kan nu börja belasta med vikter och strecha för sista rörligheten. Var till sjukgymnast den 8/4 och fick många tips. Fortfarande ont i handleden som nästan blivit värre och värre. Även där börja sty med vikt för att klara belastning. Hade tejpat 2 dagar och det gjorde mindre ont, kan göra om det för att lära handen att hitta rätt läge. | details |

| cedarcreek | 171 days | First wisdom: If you think it might be broken, splint first and then go to the doctor. This is the second time I've seen a possible break and didn't split it (once on someone else's break, and once for my own break). It will feel a million times better if you splint it. I had a custom built brace made from a white plastic called Orthoplast (which is a term like Bandaid). It wasn't too expensive (after insurance), and it fit better than any other brace I tried. It was more comfortable a... | details |

| RLShadow | 174 days | I'm not 100% recovered (as of late Feb. 2015), but I don't think I'll ever be totally recovered. I am back to playing pickleball right handed, and I can do most things that I used to be able to do. Still somewhat limited on range of motion and strength. | details |
