A member asked:
Last week i slipped onto my butt and broke the fall with my left hand. initially, i could only move my arm to a 90 deg. angle. although improved, i still can't fully straighten the arm and am bruised on either side of the elbow. any advice?

Arm problems : It seems like you could not bend the arm at the elbow. You should have an in-person examination. I wonder if you damaged the internal elbow joint. A fracture is not an unreasonable possibility.
