Fractures and injuries of the joints associated with their temporary immobility and fixation in a plaster cast or splint, are fraught with the fact that after removing the fixing bandages, their mobility is sharply limited. Fixed in one position, the muscles of the joints lose their elasticity and must be developed in order to regain their original mobility. If you have had an elbow fracture, then we recommend several exercises to help increase its mobility.
Instructions
Step 1
Stand up straight. Clasp your hands together at chest level. Do the following movements 10 times: transfer the lock to the left shoulder, to the chest, to the right shoulder, the lock up, behind the head, up and down, the lock slides to the chin and down.
