Hello there, Well it will be almost 4 weeks now,so you can start rehabilition,,,however as you mentioned elbow joint in and around has 4 fractures...so you need to share your xray/mri and other reports ...also elbow is a notorious joint for post fracture complications and nerve problems...hence any rehab should be started with upmost care and under a guidance of proper musculoskeletal physio.
Next Steps
Is your cast removed? what is the range of your elbow jt now? what suppliments and prescription pain killers are you taking now? get back for proper analysis. Regards.
