Elbow mobilization issue after surgery

2018-01-16 10:13:08
I had a surgery in my left elbow in the month of november 2017and screws were implanted in my elbow. According doctor's suggestion, I am taking physiotherapy treatment and it is been 1 and half month physiotherapy, still the stiffness and mobilization issue persist and do not see any noticeable improvement on this. Could you please suggest me on this...

Physiotherapy is the only answer .. You have to go beyond your comfort zone to get movements beyond the range you already have. Sometimes, implants may act as barriers or mechanical block to movement, so rule out that.
