Scaphoid fractures are among the most common wrist injuries and can become serious if not properly treated. The scaphoid is a small bone in the wrist that plays a vital role in both movement and stability. Because standard X-rays may not always reveal this type of fracture, fluoroscopy is often used for a more accurate diagnosis. If left untreated, a scaphoid fracture can result in long-term complications such as wrist instability, arthritis, or avascular necrosis. Avascular necrosis occurs when the bone loses its blood supply, leading to bone collapse, chronic pain, and reduced mobility. Seeking timely care from an orthopedic wrist specialist is essential to ensure accurate diagnosis and effective treatment.
