Left Erb's Palsy and Right Humerus fract
My baby boy was diagnosed with Left Erb's Palsy and Right Humerus fracture. The delivery was difficult. My baby boy is 2 months old now. There is slight improvement in left hand movement but left fist is clenched all the time and there is no finger movement. Right humerus fracture is healing but wrist remains 90 deg clockwise to the radial bone and there is no finger movement in right hand as well. Kindly suggest whom to consult, where to go, what to do. Every doctor we've consulted had said that only time will tell.
