I snapped a photo of the X-ray when I went to the doctor yesterday.
Yeah, I know. Pretty cool, huh?
Doctor says things are healing fine. Bone mending is a little better than expected. Damaged nerves are healing as expected. The good news, my range of motion is way better than expected. Especially, considering the damage I initially did to the area. So good in fact, he said that there is no need to report to physical therapy anymore. I have to say that my therapist really helped the progression of my recovery.
Strength conditioning can be done at home.
After looking at the X-rays and seeing the range of motion I regained, he said I could pretty much do anything right now and the wrist should be fine. More strenuous activities, like pull-ups, should not be attempted for about a month.
I tired driving the other day. There was pain when making sudden moves or trying to pull into a parking spot. This is a strength issue that will improve with time. Damn it, this means I have to wait a while before I can drive the DeLorean, again. I plan on starting my strength training at the beginning of the year. Some bike riding, Insanity and P90-X should get me ready for a return to hockey in June. Heck, I may fit in a century ride, just for fun.
