After the initial healing of the fracture, moderate exercise can prevent joint stiffness and muscle atrophy, and promote the gradual recovery of wrist range of motion and strength. At this time, targeted training should be carried out under the guidance of the doctor, such as slight flexion and extension, rotation and other movements to stimulate joint and muscle recovery. It can reduce the occurrence of complications. If not done in time, it may lead to long-term limited mobility and increase the risk of complications such as traumatic arthritis. Through early reasonable exercise, can improve local blood circulation, speed up the rehabilitation process, reduce the possibility of complications. It is conducive to the reconstruction of motor coordination. After wrist fracture, motor coordination will be affected. Early exercise can help re-establish neuromuscular connections, improve wrist control and fine motor accuracy, and thus better restore daily life and work ability. However, pay attention to gradual, not excessive exercise can lead to re-injury. In short, wrist fracture should seize the early stage after fracture healing, actively exercise, but must follow the doctor's professional advice and guidance, according to the individual recovery situation to develop appropriate exercise plan, in order to achieve the best rehabilitation effect.
