Answers:
i broke my humerous 3 years ago!. what helped me a lot was to sit in a hot tub and just let the arm float, and i'd bend it a bit with my other arm to see how far it would go!. but personally i'd wait till you saw the physical therapist, it's their job to help rehabilitate injury and recover full abilities!. if you go trying a bunch of things wigglin your arm around, you could do some irreversible damage!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
When i broke my wrist the doc told me to squeeze a stress ball!. Mabye it will help you!Www@Answer-Health@Com
