How does elbow joint stretch not straight recover?

First of all, elbow range of motion exercise and rehabilitation treatment is a long-term process, and it is difficult to have a prescribed exercise schedule. If there are special requirements for angle practice in some operations, the doctor will inform them after the operation. Due to the different organizational conditions and individual differences, the reactions in practice will be very different. We should not blindly pursue the progress. We should gradually increase the angle without increasing the swelling and pain of the joint. Each treatment will increase by 1-2 times °， It's OK to see significant progress every week.

Secondly, for elbow extension is not straight, rehabilitation exercise method, generally can ask the patient to pull the horizontal bar, or carry out water exercise. Then, ask the patient's family members to help with the exercise, straighten to the degree of pain, persist for a while, always pay attention not to blindly pursue fast, and aim at the pain position every day. Generally, the effect will be quite good.

matters needing attention

Elbow itself after the injury, or the surrounding fractures, such as humeral fractures or forearm fractures, in the treatment must have a certain degree and time of fixation. Common are "triangle towel" hanging protection, plaster fixation, splint or brace protection and so on. Either way, there is inflammation and immobilization in the soft tissue around the elbow. This will lead to changes in the morphology, structure and biomechanics of the muscles, ligaments, joint capsules and other tissues around the elbow joint, resulting in joint adhesion and atrophy of the muscles around the elbow joint. So never take it lightly! Don't increase the amount of practice by yourself, and don't use violence. The angle of one practice is improved too much!
