Fellow scaphoid fracture victim here... Not a bike accident but on a snowboard. Hopefully the only time I have to be carried down on a ski stretcher. After surgery and I think 3 casts later I was able to begin rehab which felt like a lifetime. My thumb was sore and sensitive to the touch for a long time. Not to mention the ligaments and forearm muscle atrophied. Here is a harsh reminder of the stitches and pins that were left inside my wrist over 25 years ago. My twins were enfant toddlers at the time living with inlaws so was lucky to have support of family. Take care all!!!

Broke my scaphoid, a fucking tiny bone, had a plaster for 3 months in summer time. Half my fingers were covered by it. You can't imagine the smell. Was a huge relief when they removed it. Bonus point I did this 1 week before my baby came. But I had 3 months off work to stay with my wife and the baby.
Never break your scaphoid.
