Re: Scaphoid Fracture

Yeah, you want to give it enough time to heal before rechecking. Then if it's still not healed, the options are more cast time or surgery. My friend recently had a scaphoid fracture and he was in a cast for quite a while (I can't remember if it was just the 8 weeks or if he needed another go at it after the 8 weeks), but it eventually healed on its own. So just try to be patient and think good thoughts!
