Summary
This study looks at whether moving the wrist immediately after surgery for a broken wrist helps people recover faster compared to wearing a cast for 2 weeks. About 240 adults aged 18-65 with a specific type of wrist fracture will be randomly assigned to one of the two groups. The main goals are to see how quickly they can return to work and how well their wrist functions after 2 months.
