Get an X-ray : If you think you have fractured( or dislocated) your elbow go to the er for evaluation and x-rays.Fractures of the elbow are often clinically obvious and painful; but not always...Radial head elbow fractures are common and can occur occassionally by an indirect mechanism. They may cause less pain and can be 'missed' now and then.Go to er or orthopedists' office for eval.Best of luck!
