When the wrist fractures, surgery is needed. A splint only works 5% of the time!! Those are tiny bones and they do not heal well that way.
Good luck...I am so sorry this has happened. |
The vet thinks that due to the nature of the fracture the splint is the better option. Obviously if in 4-6 weeks we still have a problem, we will have to consider surgery, but because a very very small bit of bone has just came off the side of the joint and hasnt moved away it should be ok.
