can't straighten right arm Posted: 07-11-08 13:07pm
I have had 2 elbow surgeries several years
ago - 1 scope to remove debris and a bone
spur removal. I still cannot straighten
my right arm all the way. I was given a
turnbuckle brace to use after the
surgeries which is torture to use. I
would really like to get the arm straight
again because it affects my range of
motion for reaching, and for playing
tennis and other sports. The way my arm is
carried is described as a rifle stock arm
- slightly bent. Are there any exercises
that are recommended and should I get that
brace back out again? I have tried deep
massage and accupunture treatments in the
past. Thanks for any help you can offer -
Ted
