HELP I broke my wrist

[disneythebest345]

I broke my wrist on October 10th and I am going to Disney on the 24th. Someone please help me. I am in extreme pain because the doctor put me in a brace and not a cast. I might call them to see if they can put me in a cast on Monday. If i choose the cast will I not be able to go on the cool and big roller coaster rides.

Ask your doctor about restrictions

Ok thank you i was just thinking if they might be like you can't ride this because you have a broken wrist

If it's a short brace/cast and other than that you can move your arm, then I can't think of anywhere it would matter. Maybe Flight of Passage?

If the break needed to be in a cast past the elbow and/or kept immobilized in a sling, that might cause problems with some safety systems. But there's not a rule that says you can't go on things with a wrist brace/cast.

For the most part, what you can do will depend on what's safe (according to your doctor) and whether things cause you pain/swelling.

Thanks so much!!!

I am leaning towards the cast and I will ask tomorrow to see if the doctor will put me in one that is up to the elbow

I went to WDW with a broken wrist- no problems for me. I went one time with a broken ankle, though, and that was a pain (literally) and I wouldn’t do it again without a scooter/motorized wheelchair. If you’re in a lot of pain, a sling can really help.

You aren't supposed to jostle around a broken bone, even after it has been cast. You really shouldn't ride coasters or anything rough, sorry to say. Your doctor will give you specifics on what to avoid.

You aren’t being asked to do much while riding rides, you should be just fine.
