The wrist is a complex system that connects your forearm and hand. Because of its complex properties, the wrist can fracture in many different ways.

In this video, you will learn more about various types of wrist fractures and how they are treated. While a simpler break may be treated with a cast or splint, some types of wrist fractures must be treated surgically. Surgery restores the surface of the wrist joint’s cartilage to prevent chronic joint pain or the early development of arthritis.
