Elbow surgery and physio pain

2026-05-07 15:54:06
I got elbow surgery and after 45 days I started doing the physio.. It's been 10 days and I'm getting 50% moments.. But I have severe pain while doing physio.. Cab I go for physio day by day (alternate day) or go to physio every day .. Because after the physio,mostly  half of the day I'm unable to do anything..getting severe pain .. I have  2 yrs old baby so I can't manage both. If I skip one day then I can get some time for doing self exercises..so can I go for physio day by day ?? or it will impact on elbow stiffness??? But physio is the worst pain...because of the pain I'm thinking to stop physio... Pls doctors Give me suggestions.. how to manage it and how many days go for physio ???

Alternate day physio if she continues daily home exercises. Do not stop physiotherapy completely to prevent elbow stiffness progression.Severe prolonged pain suggests therapy is too aggressive so continue gentle ROM exercises and gradual mobilisation.

don't stop all the exercises you done during physiotherapy session. modify the exercises in terms of resistance and repetition if possible. you can also manage your pain by taking pain killer for few days .
