Fractures of the distal radius are common, especially in older women. Once an older woman has a distal radius fracture, she is most likely to be dysfunctional, so functional exercises are especially important. In the early stages, within a week, patients should be taught to make a fist, straighten it, open it, and bring it together. Then shoulder and elbow exercises, many patients with distal radius fracture have shoulder dysfunction after wearing a cast and hanging, so it is important to use the shoulder and elbow joints for activities at an early stage. From the third to the fourth week, in addition to shoulder and elbow functional training and hand functional training, it is also necessary to change the wrist joint into a dorsiflexion functional position, and then do dorsiflexion stretching exercises in a fixed functional position. After greater than four weeks, the cast is usually removed and you can do wrist exercises in all directions to restore flexibility as well as resistance training in all directions should be done to build up the muscles. By eight weeks you should be back to housework, athleticism and labor.
