A member asked:
If one part of your arm is broken can you move the arm, or even another part of the arm please answer both queations?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes and: Yes.. The motion of your arm, shoulder, elbow, forearm, wrist and hand are all due to the MUSCLES and the NERVES which control them...a Fractured bone (unless severe enough to injure muscles/nerves) has NOTHING to DO with the ability to MOVE! Hope this answers your questions (both of them) Be well\ Dr Z
