Elbow pain after a car accident

Question

Asked for Male, 20 Years

27th of March I was hit by a car and received a severe proximal humerus fracture. I had surgery on it and also had severe bruising on my elbow and forearm. It looks fine but to the touch it still feels like it's bruised, I have heard of bone bruising but thought that would have gone by now. Is it normal to still be experiencing a bruise like pain after this long?
