Brief Medical History Overview
Fractured neck of the humerus
Hi there!
I am a man in my late fifties who fractured the surgical neck of my left humerus three months ago. My arm was placed in a collar and cuff for about four/five weeks. Although its now roughly eight weeks since the incident occured, i still encounter stiffness and pain over the deltoid area going down as far as my elbow. I still find it difficult to scratch my back and comb my hair. I am particularly intrigued as to why i am experiencing pain down as far as my elbow. I would be extremely grateful if anyone could inform me why this is happening and maybe recommend some exercises to ease/get rid of the stiffness.
Thanks very much for your time
