Childhood right arm fracture malunion
I suffered a fracture in my right arm when I was nearly one and a half years old. The treatment resulted in a malunion that wasn't detected at that time. Although I can perform all the normal functions with that arm, however, I am not able to do heavy workout with weights in gym. Also I am not able to pushups properly owing to inability to maintain the right balance with both hands. Please suggest what can be done to get the malunion corrected. I am 26 years old male with a high BMI.

Share you x-rays.. Do not fiddle with the malunited if you don't have much problems. Anyways if you are motivated and you understand the risks ..you can plan correction with your surgeon.
