Cannot extend arm

[thefallen]

hi,

Thanks for replying. I have another appointment at the fracture clinic on the 30th Jan. When they took the cast off I asked about physio as I am sure the consultant i originally saw said i would need lots.. but he said that you don't normally have physio on the elbow??!? I said that the consultant had originally said otherwise and he changed his mind and referred me, although i have not heard from them to date and need to chase them up for an appointment.

My father is diabetic but they have never looked into why the break took so long to heal. They just said that it was because it was a bad break. They never give me much information at all really and it is only when i prise it out of them. I asked what would happen if the break still wasn't healing in the next few months and he said if it wasn't painful they would carry on leaving it alone and wait. Or if it hursts they might do a scan but didn't give me any more info on this.

Do you know what questions I should be asking at my next appointment?

Thanks for your time.
