Finally proving that I am the ultimate klutz, I managed to break my wrist at a physical therapy session for a leg injury. So, I'm in a cast and out of the pool, I would guess, for at least the next 4-6 weeks.
Anyone else return from a broken wrist/hand injury? Any words of wisdom? And yes I know, follow doctors instructions.

If you can get in the pool and do some kicking, that would be helpful. I injured my wrist when I was 12(back in '89) and had to wear my cast above my elbows so I couldn't swim. But, if it is not above your elbows, due to the advances in medical technology, Just get in the pool with a kickboard and do some kicking SO you don't lose total swimming feeling.
