Question: My broken wrist wont heal,even after it was pinned!.i think my doctor is being evasive!?
Answers:
I would go to another doctor for a second opinion!. The wrist should be healing especially with the pins in place!. I would not take any chances with my health and seek another doctor that you are comfortable with!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I am assuming you are talking about a fractured navicular!. Due to the bone's poor blood supply, even with pinning you may not get true bony healing!. You may end up with a fibrous union, not new bone!.

For some people only a bone graft will do it!. (piece of live bone off your hip) A physician can't tell this before surgery!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
