What should be done for a torn forearm injury?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Torn what: Where is the tear? Skin, muscle? Skin lacerations are obvious but muscle tears are problematic. The severity of the tear, the disability resulting, the area involved all play into the treatment. See an orthopedist for an evaluation.
