Fractures & Post-Surgical Rehabilitation (Elbow)

Causes and Risk Factors:

• Falls or direct blows to the elbow
• Sports injuries or accidents
• Weak bones, such as from osteoporosis
• Surgery to repair the elbow, like after a break or ligament injury
• Scar tissue or limited movement after healing, which can cause stiffness or pain

What Happens If Left Untreated?

Without proper rehab, elbow fractures or surgery can lead to ongoing pain, stiffness, weak muscles, and reduced arm function, making it hard to bend, lift, or reach.

How Premier Care Can Help:

• Manual Therapy: Gentle hands-on movements to reduce stiffness and improve elbow motion
• Therapeutic Exercises: Strengthening and stretching exercises to build muscle and restore movement
• Pain Relief Treatments: Ice, heat, ultrasound, or electrical therapy to ease pain and reduce swelling
• Scar Tissue and Soft Tissue Work: Techniques to improve flexibility and reduce tightness
• Step-by-Step Recovery Plan: A custom rehab program to help you safely return to daily activities
