it was 2 fractures right in the wrist ... went undiagnosed for almost a month. wound up in the cast for 3 months. i was always a quick and healthy healer.
no surgery needed, but i will admit my left wrist is not up to par with my right one still to this day

3 years and some change, did it snowboarding, landed with my wrist between my body and the steel rail i was previously riding down
i dont remember what bones, it was two lil ones in the wrist. theres no permanent damage, but i can def tell its not up to the same level of strength as my wrist
but maybe thats cuz of other reasons

pinky, yea that was my big concern that it wouldnt heal right and they would need to do pins ... which would have ended alot of the sports i like to enjoy since my mom would have become anal even more about that happening again
