Son hand fracture

2025-12-27 14:32:26
My son fell on 5/12/2025 , there was little swelling on his left hand. When I visited doctor then doctor said there is minor fracture. Doctor plastered and advised for 20 days plaster. But after 20 days when plaster was removed there is little bit swelling. X ray after removal of plaster was Ok. The doctor said swelling is ok. Is sweeling after plaster removal ok or not ?

Sometimes are plaster is removed early to allow for supervised mobilisation exercises but the process of healing might take longer. So there might be persistent swelling for some time.
Next Steps
Share the X-rays of both visits. And the clinical pic. Further decision can be taken based on that.
