A member asked:
How long before two broke bones in a 10 year old arm will heal to go back to dancing and gymnastics?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Healing process: It will take 6-8 weeks for the bones to heal. Dancing can begin immediately. If gymnastics involve any arm exercises, i would tend to wait a bit longer because the arm muscles may show disuse atrophy from wearing the cast.

I do gymnastics, and after attempting a double front flip I landed on my neck during the second rotation. This was about a week and a half ago, and my neck is a little stiff but not bad. But my arms feel weaker and somewhat tingly when I lift things.
