Hi, thanks for your reply. Had x-rays a few hours after the dislocation. No fractures but due to the amount of swelling the x-rays were not ideal. The doctor didn’t believe that I had a dislocation either, even though my arm was massive through the swelling. Went back and saw a different doctor 2 days later, he said not to use a sling or cast and to move it as much as possible while it healed. 2 weeks later I have only about 45 degrees of movement, still a painful swollen joint, pain on twisting my hand and the muscle mass on the under side of my arm seems not to be quite where it should be close to the elbow! Will go back to the hospital and see if I can find a proper orthopaedic doctor who can give me clearer advise. Also I will arrange a meeting with a senior private physio for later this week. I was worried that I have been moving my arm too much and not given it enough healing time, but I have only followed the advise I was given. Pretty sure I could do with an MRI scan really to see where the damage is but that’s usually a 3-month waiting list here. Thanks again for your advice.
