A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: A lot depends on the nature of your fracture, but even more so on the nature of your work. A sedntry office worker with a mild fracture might be able to return the next day after an elbow fracture, whereas a manual laborere with a sever elblow injury might be out 6-12 weeks or even never be able to return. Thank you for your question.
