One xray and so many different opinions… all we are doing is confusing the patient… In such cases i would request the patient to just visit the nearby trusted doctor… he can be the best judge to this, and trust him he will do his best to make your child alright.

It is unlikely to be a fracture. It could be pulled elbow.
