ELBOW MUSCLE

2018-02-16 14:53:27
7 years ago I had a hairline fracture in my elbow . I didn't get physiotherapy for my elbow so my arm always stuck when I tried to fold it on my elbow. Again a year ago I had a torn muscle in my same elbow , I then exercised some physiotherapy on my elbow it did work little. Now can I fold my arm fully if I start physiotherapy again ?

Hello. It depends on status of your joint that can be detected by an X ray to rule out any bony block or any calcification in the joint. If joint is free, movement can be regained by Physiotherapy.
