Conservative treatment of comminuted fracture of distal radius varies depending on the severity and the exact duration of hospitalization, which usually takes 2~4 weeks.
Distal radius fracture is mostly seen under the action of strong external force such as fall, car accident, external object striking, etc. After the fracture, there can be symptoms such as wrist joint pain, swelling, deformity, abnormal activity, etc. The treatment can be divided into conservative treatment and surgical treatment, and the conservative treatment mainly consists of manipulation and repositioning, splinting external fixation and triangular scarf suspension.
Because the wrist joint and the surrounding area can be obviously swollen after fracture, the bandage of splint needs to be adjusted constantly to ensure effective immobilization, while the degree of injury and different physical conditions, the time for swelling to subside is also somewhat different, and it usually takes 2~4 weeks, with lighter injury and better physical condition, the swelling subsides faster and the hospitalization time is shorter, and vice versa is longer.
The specific hospitalization time after comminuted fracture of the distal radius is recommended under the guidance of the doctor and in conjunction with your own situation.
