X-rays of your wrists are showing an intraarticular fracture dislocation ( volar Barton) it requires an accurate reduction and stable fixation to achieve optimal union and function. In a younger individual we usually operate and put a plate in after reduction.
In my opinion surgery would be a preferred option

This fracture doesn't need surgery. It should be managed without surgery.
