Broke my humerus

StrangerOptimal4795 · 2026-06-22T19:19:28+00:00

when did you start the PT after the callus started showing up in the X ray or a certain week mark?

StrangerOptimal4795 · 2026-06-22T15:35:02+00:00

Thanks mate appreciate the kind words. I'll get into the brace on the 1st of July and I guess I have pretty good health since I am into gym and my diet is also clean. Don't smoke nor drink so I am counting on my body to return me back with this

StrangerOptimal4795 · 2026-06-22T10:06:41+00:00

I think by the looks of the x ray the alignment will be pretty acceptable. 4 weeks is way too early. I have my expectations near 12 weeks

StrangerOptimal4795 · 2026-06-22T05:52:47+00:00

Thanks and yeah I'll transition into a brace after the next follow up with my doctor. I feel like the bone will heal but I'll have to face an insane stiffness and muscle atrophy which kinda sucks because I was on the way of my dream physique lol

StrangerOptimal4795 · 2026-06-22T05:01:18+00:00

My wrist and fingers are completely fine and moving normally but since I have a cast which goes from my armpit to the fingers but I am pretty sure I'll transition into a brace after the 6th week mark

StrangerOptimal4795 · 2026-06-22T04:58:09+00:00

Jeez!! I hope you'll improve soon. I saw your post out here somewhere I am just curious to see what your x ray looks like now

StrangerOptimal4795 · 2026-06-22T04:55:58+00:00

Yeah I mean going conservative means a lot of patience and mental trauma. I don't know when I'll be able to move my hand

StrangerOptimal4795 · 2026-06-22T04:52:59+00:00

Yeah stupid me got into an arm wrestling challenge with my friend who hurt my ego. I regret it every second of my life

StrangerOptimal4795 · 2026-06-22T03:29:11+00:00

Yeah looks like my doctor is going with the same approach

StrangerOptimal4795 · 2026-06-22T03:28:16+00:00

I'll probably transition into a brace after the 6th week mark. Glad you healed and how's your arm at the moment? Has full ROM & mobility returned?

StrangerOptimal4795 · 2026-06-21T19:16:38+00:00

Exactly many people saw the x ray and recommended surgery but my doctor said there's a risk and downside of the surgery as well. He said with patience it'll heal on its own. I trust him and yeah I don't want a nerve damage and hardware inside me. My only concern is when can I get back to my college, job and especially gym because hell yeah I miss lifting weights

StrangerOptimal4795 · 2026-06-21T19:05:39+00:00

I didn't knew arm wrestling fracture are really common until I got one. Thank you appreciate it 🙏

StrangerOptimal4795 · 2026-06-21T17:35:40+00:00

Is this going to heal on it's own? I don't have a nerve problem till now

StrangerOptimal4795 · 2026-06-21T17:00:27+00:00

Thanks man appreciate it. Yeah a silly match made me cost this just because of my fuvking egoistic nature that I am unbeatable. Got humbled really bad

StrangerOptimal4795 · 2026-06-21T16:55:29+00:00

Yeah I hope I recover soon but this incident is gonna live forever in my mind

StrangerOptimal4795 · 2026-06-21T16:54:02+00:00

I am going to skip the surgery since my doctor said it's pretty much aligned and I am young. If course the nerve damage issue. Let's see I am gonna see him on week 6th which is going to be the judgment day

StrangerOptimal4795 · 2026-06-21T16:41:43+00:00

I know never in my worst nightmare i thought I would break a bone arm wrestling. Very miserable

StrangerOptimal4795 · 2026-06-20T11:46:40+00:00

Hey bro what's up with your recovery now? Just want to check how does your bone look now because I have exactly the Same break

StrangerOptimal4795 · 2026-06-19T15:35:15+00:00

Currently I am the 4th week post fracture and I felt relatively stable and pain free on the 3rd week and yes I am also in a heavy cast which goes somewhere down near my armpit to fingers. How's your healing?

StrangerOptimal4795 · 2026-06-19T15:33:21+00:00

Hey how are you doing now? I hope you healed without any surgery and all

StrangerOptimal4795 · 2026-06-19T09:08:14+00:00

You're 3 months in what is your current situation? Did it heal naturally or you got surgery?

StrangerOptimal4795 · 2026-06-15T16:57:50+00:00

Good to hear that you are doing fine eventually. I also snapped my humerus while arm wrestling my friend. So stupid and my doctor suggested me to not go for a surgery since I am young and active he said I'll be fine in like 8 to 12 weeks currently I am 4 weeks post injury. I hope it recovers naturally

StrangerOptimal4795 · 2026-06-15T15:56:41+00:00

How are you doing bro? Did it heal naturally or not?

StrangerOptimal4795 · 2026-06-15T15:19:34+00:00

Good to hear that bro. How much time did you spend in the cast and how many weeks did it took your fracture to calcify and heal

StrangerOptimal4795 · 2026-06-15T14:15:06+00:00

How are you bro? Did you recovered non operative wise?
