It's going to suck for a week or so till the worst pain recedes. Take yer meds as prescribed. You're going to get a brace that will keep your arm from moving, then with time the doctor will adjust the brace for slight movement, then more movement in time. Physical therapy is important cause muscle apathy and joint stiffening will occur. Got to build those muscles back up and get that elbow range of motion back to normal. I ganked my elbow about the same time of year and had all Winter to heal. If you're not a lefty now, you will be when it's all said and done.

No brace…doc says elbows get stiff and it needs to move. He wants me to straighten it as often as possible without pushing it.
The bone was in three pieces. Pain yesterday was off the fucking charts! Today less than half.
Coping tricks are off the table for me now. I’m putting on softer wheels and will just be happy cruising and carving. With my back the way it is, one more slam like that one could cause serious damage. As much as I love the progress I was making, my body just can’t handle it.
Funny how similar your x-ray is to mine. Same break. |

I am happy though that I got a rock and roll on video before it happened.
Nothing special and far from my cleanest, but I just learned it and that was the biggest bowl I’d done it on. Got some good 50/50’s on the same bowl before it took me out of commission.

| I broke my elbow 25 years ago. Even then they didn’t put a cast on it. Do your rehab/therapy faithfully. You don’t want lose mobility. Honestly it took several years before it was totally back to normal. I still get pains in it every now and then. Good luck! |

Snapped the end of the bone right off. Needs surgery. Had on knee pads, a back brace, and wrist guards. No elbow pads. Hung up the back truck. That’s two breaks in the last few months. Been going at it pretty hard lately.
Yeah but did you get up and land it? lol just messing. That looks brutal. Hope you heal up quick! |
