One thing I can highly recommend is that you do the physical therapy during the healing process... especially on something used as often as your wrist. When I had my wreck on the street, I made damn sure I did bc I've heard terrible horror stories about guys being "tough" and "not needing pt." It was the best thing I've ever done, I have full rang of motion in my shoulder (after a broken scapula) and my upper body is stronger than it was before the crash. Healing will take time, but don't skimp on the pt.
heal up quick bro.

scaphoid injuries suck. do everything the doctor tells you too for those or you could have problems for the rest of your life, no joke
i bruised mine back in 2008 in an unrelated fence jumping incident and it took nearly 6-8 months to fully heal, i still have soreness there because i didnt let it rest and heal like i shouldve
Sorry to hear about you're injury. Seems like a lot of guys have been getting dinged up lately.
Since you're not on a factory GP team..... take as much time as you need to heal properly.
Good luck with the surgery.

meaning they cut jiggy ace open and found that there truely is nitrous in his blood...I KNEW IT!!!
scaphoid is the bone in your wrist near the thumb attachment. Give someone a thumbs up, and htat little square area that is created because of the tendons rising up at your wrist joint, that is where the scaphoid is. Issue with a scaphoid break is poor blood supply to the area, and could become necrotic (dead) if not healed well.
Depending on fracture of ulna, no a huge deal unless ya damaged your cartilagenous disc in the process.
dislocation will mean you need to make sure your girl is tending to your needs, as you wont be able to for a while........

I had a similar issue about 8 years ago. Broken and dislocated right wrist. Broke the head off of the Ulna, at a 45 degree angle to the length of the bone and shoved ulna, broken piece and Radius about 2 inches into my palm. It was no joke that my right arm was about 1 3/4 inches shorter than my left. I never got surgery and have minor issues today. My Radius sticks out a bit on the outside of my wrist, my right hand is about 2 degrees clockwise in relation to my right forearm and when lifting heavy objects or at odd angles, I can feel my wrist separate a bit. Nothing that really affects daily life, just a reminder of the injury every once and a while.
Hope everything works it's way back to normal.
