Wrist brace , if not applied properly at night can cause swelling of hand. Calcium tab should not be taken for more than 2 to 3 Wk unless there is some other  indication.

Please indicate: How old is your fracture now ? Share latest X-ray. You can remove your brace in nights. Do range of motion and strengthening exercises for hand , wrist , elbow. Calcium tabs has no role in fracture healing in otherwise healthy individuals.
