Green Building Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 Depends on the severity, some people never regain full mobility (ability to fully straighten the arm) as a result of soft tissue damage. Having said that a friend of mine dislocated his elbow and he was in a sling for 3 weeks before started physio. Now his elbow is back to near %100. I hope you have the same experience. Don't freak out before getting a diagnosis. Come to think of it, don't freak out after either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintPatrick33 Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 Sounds painful, never had one myself, but what @Green Building stated is pretty much the norm knowing other people who had similar types of injury. Sling er up and just wait it out for a month or so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WHL rocks Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 Broken a few bones in my life but never dislocated elbow. Shouldn't be longer than a month if nothing broken. It will dislocate a lot easier from now on. It's never the same, Shoulder is like that so I'm thinking elbow pbbly the same. Ask the doc. I'm just talking from experience.

I'll do it once a month and do lots of stretches and warm up properly before working out and it helps a lot. If i don't do it for a couple of months i can't sleep on my right shoulder which is my fav. position to sleep. sucks. Your doc would pbbly prescribe it if you tell him about joint pain you are having. There was a point I couldn't flip a newspaper page with my hand because of the sharp pain I'd get. Slowly over time it improved. Lots of stretching and rotator cuff strengthening exercises with very light weight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
