Right Arm/Elbow won’t bend/straighten
I’ve had 3 surgeries on my right arm and 1 surgery on my right wrist. Due to me breaking my right arm 10 years ago. I had physical therapy but still to this day I can’t bend or straighten it at all. My arm has been in a slanted position all these years. One doctor told me that I have a lot of scar tissue so it could be harder to fix. My first surgery was for the rod implementation that was supposed to fix it but my arm does not move. Is there anyone that can help me? I just want a normal life.

Hi Mam,
You need to go for scar rehabilitation needling, a physiotherapy procedure, if it is only scar according to doctor troubling you. And if it's myositis ossificans in your elbow than it may need again surgery.
