How long does a fractured arm take to heal?!


Question: How long does a fractured arm take to heal!?
I know that i have a fractured arm and it happened exactly a week ago!. I don't think it is that big of a crack because it would swell up!. I can move it a little bit and my class is graduating in 2 weeks! We are going to a waterslide park! Please tell me will a small crack take a long time!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
2-4 weeksWww@Answer-Health@Com

depending on the type of fracture

compound (can take longer than a break because it requires corrective surgery)

hairline- anywhere from 4-weeks to 8 weeks

hopefully you'll be able to get a brace or a shorter cast before then (request a brace next time you are at the doctor) good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well my right arm got fractured pretty good during a football game and it took about 6 weeks for it to fully heal!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

In a cast about 6 to 8 weeks!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
