      Hi Michelle,
      I had Distal Radius Fracture left hand wrist surgery 1 month back. Still in recovery mode though Swelling is there and can't twist wrist now. I believe it will improve slowly as it progresses, it's improved over last one month though.
      I have a question regarding Hand tremors shaky left hands. Is it result of the distal radius fracture wherein I had implant inserted. I am very concerned on these shaky hands. Will the exercises advised by you help in hand tremors as well.
      I am 55 years old never had these symptoms earlier.
      Pls advise if it's due to the wrist surgery and due to anything other problem. And that the exercises advises by you for building grip, help in controlling Shaky left hand fingers as well.
      Thanks in advance

      You might like to try a product I am using called Handmaster Plus. I really like it. It comes with 2 grip balls and 4 resistance bands. It's really affordable . I found it I n online but have also c seen it in catalog that sells all kinds of products .

    • @VirtualHandCare

      It can be very helpful for wrist stability if that is what you feel you need. But you can try putting a ball in a bowl or cup and try circling it around to get a similar feeling.

    Hey Michelle, i have distal radius fracture on 28th of August and i had surgery with K wires on 30th August.
    So doc said post surgery 6 weeks he will remove plaster cast and after that post 2 weeks k wires will be removed.
    I am able to move my fingers inside cast but not able to move thumb backward.
    Doctor said it's because of k wire.
    And i have elbow pain too and i am not able to Fully stretch it out, doc said there's not any fracture or injury it's just because of shock , what do you think about it?

    • @beckiel3211
      @beckiel3211 ปีที่แล้ว

      I had the same. Fracture radius and ulna on the 4th Oct. Had K wire too like yours. Cast and Kwire removed on the 7th week. What u are experiencing was same to mine too.. Started physio but I noticed Michelle's video is more easier and because it applies to my daily activity, its easier rather than in the physio session I had, forced exercise so it's more stressful.

      @@ghaliyaurs6965 Yes gradually it will,
      Be patient and give it time .
      I am fully recovered now and doing good ...
      See one thing is that 4-5% stiffness will still be there even after you are fully recovered because natural is natural , otherwise you will be good to go , no issues .

    Still in a cast. But I can tell that squeezing is going to be challenging at first.
