Fractured elbow and failing physical therapy, what to do?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Elbow specialist.: Make sure that you're seeing an orthopedic elbow specialist. The fracture needs to heal in the correct position. It may be malaligned.... Or it could be a non-union or a delayed union.
