Depends on the type of injury and the type of plaster( Above elbow or below elbow) you have.
Best will be to have a follow up with your orthopaedic surgeon whom you consulted previously.

Definitely if you can do , you do.
Depending on the type of surgery and fixation, in orthopaedics start movement as early as possible. If patient can tolerate pain movement can be started .
Type of plaster you have is splint, splint is given post-operatively for support only .
