• Such an innocuous fall this morning, turns out I broke a bone in my wrist (scaphoid). 12 weeks of cast apparently
    :(

  • I reckon there's been some miscommunication. 12 weeks is the total duration of healing in most adults. You normally don't need a cast for more than 3 weeks unless it's badly displaced.
    Having said that, I don't know the specifics of your case so just clarify at your fracture clinic appointment. If it is 12 weeks in cast it must have been a bad fall! Wish you the best.
