Problem with my hand

    I know no medical advice is given on this forum, I'm just asking if anyone knows what the problem might be here. I broke my scaphoid bone a few years ago but it wasn't healing in the cast so they operated on it and put 2 pins in it. During the operation the surgeon accidentally sliced an artery and now my right hand gets colder than my left hand. My hand works fine and I can do pretty much everything with it.

    Lately its been killing me though. I get this pain in my hand on the side opposite the scaphoid, it extends up my wrist a bit. Does this sound like arthritis? I didn't bother doing physio after the cast came off. What kinda problems can develop from not doing physio while recovering from a scaphoid fracture?

    sorry, but that's effectively medical advice.

    you need to see your GP
