Wrist injury
I met with accident one and half months ago. And I happened to have injury in wrist. And x-ray says everything is all good with bones. I used splint for support for a month. Now I'm not feeling any pain but I can't move my wrist downwards and upwards. What is the solution and problem?.

It is stiffness post your immobilisation. Hot water fomentation, wax bath and wrist dorsiflexion palmarflexion exercise will be enough.

Ideally self stretching should suffice but if it doesn't settle in a week please ensure you meet a Physiotherapist
