    I am not sure if this is the right place to post this.
    I fractured my scaphoid bone and also have a hairline fracture on (i think) my radius, I got a cast on for two weeks and it didn't really hurt, it was more uncomfortable than anything. I had to go back on the 20th for a check up and got a new cast but my wrist and the part of the arm that has the hairline fracture has been constantly sore, when I wake up in the morning my fingers are also sore and extremely stiff. I have never broken anything before so I am not sure if this is the normal healing process or if something is wrong and I should go back to the clinic.
    I am going back on the 10th for another check up, should I just wait and stop worrying or try and get an appointment for during the week?

    Go back and get it checked out. I had a badly broken wrist in various casts for a couple of months and didn't have any issues like you have.
