due to it's size and location the scaphod has a poor blood supply.....

blood, being the transport mechanism for the body will cause ossification (bone growth) by bring calcium and magnesium phospate together....

short story....be patient...it will heal

pull the cast off....you WILL break it again....maybe not on a bike, but ANY time you fall onto your wrist

Let it heal!! i broke mine and after 4 weeks took the cast of to race at aston. taped it up but smashed it to hell. Now it hurts all the time and twice as much in the cold!. I also can bend my hand back very well  and i have got some calification issue.

It coudlbe 8 plus weeks until you can really get out. but do wait.

Does it hurt if its broke ?

As i was supost to have broke mine a few weeks ago but the doctor couldnt find a fracture or anything.

So just wondering if it will hurt if its broke or would i not be able to move it sertian ways ?
Lift/ do heavy things with ease ect... ?

Thanks

it's so anoying when you break a proper small crappy bone and it stops you riding, i broke one of the bones in my hand went riding the next day didn't even think it was broken just thought i'd bruised it, then took a closer look and it looked very dodgy, kept on riding with the pot on aswell Cheesy

Its fucks me right off.
I was riding quicker after major surgery on my leg (plate fitted) than a poncy, shitty bone in my wrist! Its the fact it causes me no pain whatsoever thats annoying!

done my scaphoid in, didnt hurt at all when i did it, thought it was sprained left it and continued riding, went to a physio after about 10 weeks because it wasn't getting any better,she said it was f**ked and told me to get an xray, xray showed it was broken went to see a specialist and now on monday i got to have an operation, bone graft from pelvis:| and held together by a pin then im in cast for atleast 6 weeks. Completly f**ked my summer up, if you hurt yourself get it checked out right away, DONT LEAVE IT:@ Tommorow going for my last ride for atleast 6 weeks, pretty depressing;)
