A triquetral fracture is a break or crack in the triquetrum bone in your wrist. It often happens from falling on an outstretched hand or from sports injuries. People with osteoporosis are at higher risk. Symptoms include pain, swelling, and reduced motion. Immediate medical help is crucial. Treatment usually involves immobilizing the wrist with a splint, cast, or brace for 4-6 weeks. Surgery is rare unless the bone has moved. Recovery includes physical therapy to restore motion and strength. To prevent fractures, eat a balanced diet rich in calcium and vitamin D, and exercise regularly.
