How Can Pain In The Elbow Be Treated?
I recently had a 12 foot fall to a concrete floor. I broke my humerus , radial . ulna and 2 breaks in my elbow as well as my femur. I find that since the swelling is going down in my arm the screws are protruding through the skin above the elbow. I was wondering that the pain I experience when my elbow touches anything will get any better as time goes by.

If the screws are protruding through the skin at the elbow, it should be removed. This should remove the elbow pain.
