Occupational Therapist,  's  Response
Most likely the displaced fracture will be reduced (put back in normal alignment) conservatively and may get a plaster cast involving the thumb. The cast will remain for 4 - 6 weeks followed by Physiotherapy / Occupational therapy sessions. Starting Physiotherapy / Occupational therapy immediately after the cast will help reduce rehab timespan.
