Hi, i had elbow capitellium fracture in june 2010 and open reduced with 2 herbert screws, after that started physiotherapt in the 4th week post op i got full extension, i went to another physio there he did passive moments and bended by elbow for increasing flexion. after that in the x-ray i have developed some bone like shade under my elbow joint.
my orhto-surgeon said it is myositis ossificans and he asked me to do active exercises. i was doing exercise and improved flexion to 120 degrees but, that bony shade has increased to 8-10 times and iam not able to get extension. iam getting extension 30 degrees only. doctor said that because of myositis iam not able to get extension. recently, i had operated and removed the implants. Now please suggest me to increase the Extension and to reduce the Myositis ossicication, as because of this iam not getting a good extension in the hand. I will be very thankful. Thank you.
