About right elbow surgery

Question

Asked for Male, 25 Years

Its been 6 months that I have gone through surgery in my right elbow but I am not able to fully straight or fold my hand through elbow properly. Even I am not able to touch my face with the right hand. Do I have to go through surgery again or by doing exercises I can heal it completely.
