Ted, I broke the scaphoid bone in my wrist when I was 17. I am now 53. They removed the bone completely and fused four other bones together with eight screws and a metal plate. That was two weeks ago. I have a cast from below elbow to knuckles on my grip hand. I can still play, no break, masse, or jump, but I can play. I wish it was my hand! Thank you for your best wishes.
Don
