Possibly: I'm sorry you have been in a relationship that abuses you -- hoping you are away from that now. Yes, being beaten can result in all kinds of injuries in various stages of healing. An osteopathic physician (do) or physical medicine physician may be able to help you -- if surgery is eventually needed, an orthopedic surgeon.
