Is my elbow broken?!


Question: Today, I fell on the ice and landed on my elbow, It has swelled up above the elbow, no bruises, however I cannot fully straighten or completely bend it, I can touch the elbow all around without pain. It doesn't hurt when it is at rest.

probably not. see how it is in the morning and if it is really bruised, go to the doc, otherwise its probably okay.

It might be sprained. Go to the doctor to be sure.

Hold on a second....i'm trying to use the power of my mind to see if it's broken or not............nope, sorry, I can't seem to do it.


Seriously, how can anyone here tell you if your elbow is broken or not??? Get to a hospital and get an xray.

i dont think its brocken cuz then u wont be able to move it. maybe just a fracture or something idk u should check just in case

lt might be sprained

If it were broken, you wouldn't be able to move it without a searing pain.........

If you are concerned, to the the ER and get x-rays
