Fractured wrist
My mother fractured her wrist two months ago and her plaster was kept for 1.5 months and after removal of plaster she still has some swelling and it's been 15 days also she is unable to move her wrist cos it really pains
Swelling is not going down completely and also her wrist doesn't look in good shape like earlier.
It looks like her bone is still not settled wherein her xray says it's settled in place
Please suggest something or a nearby doctor in sion locality

Swelling, pain and stiffness after removal of plaster takes time to settle. Since the wrist was in plaster, it will be stiff. That will take time to improve. If the x-rays look good, then the rest will settle.
She needs exercises and physiotherapy to help improve the movement and also to improve strength.
Hope this helps.
