How To Treat Intense Shoulder Pain After A Humerus Bone Fracture?

My Mom is 84 and broke her right humerous bone near her shoulder 9 weeks ago. She is seeing an Ortho Dr but doesn t have a follow up appointment until Aug. Today she started to get spasms in the area of the break that are painful - it almost sounds like there is a grinding in her joint. I want to get her back to her Dr soon, but in the mean time - any ideas? My email is YYYY@YYYY

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is the fracture then great care need to be taken for swelling and soft tissue inflammation it is highly advisable to keep the fracture part in stable condition it should never be moved and tab Ibuprofen 400 mg three times in day can be tried better to use the sling hope this information helps.
I find this answer helpful
