Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

• FOOSH, or "fall on an outstretched hand," is an odd phrase for this situation. It can negatively impact your fingers, hands, wrists, elbows, or shoulders over the long term and is one of the most frequent injuries treated in emergency rooms.
• One of the carpal bones on the thumb side of the wrist, right above the radius, is the scaphoid bone. Both motion and stability in the wrist joint depend on the bone.
• One of the little bones in the wrist, the scaphoid (navicular), breaks and needs to be treated. The most frequent scenario for this kind of fracture is a fall onto an extended hand. Pain and soreness in the region directly below the base of the thumb are frequently signs of a scaphoid fracture.
