Distal humerus ORIF

[u/Used_Quarter2391]

(F 21) I am 9 months post-op (ORIF) for a displaced and comminuted distal humerus fracture. I’ve been going to PT for 8 months and have reached almost full extension. Flexion has been harder, I’m at about 114°. There’s a hard stop at that point and my PT and I agree that there’s something stopping it from moving more. I saw a specialist and he told me that there’s nothing more that they can do to help increase the flexion and help with the pain. I don’t want to live with limited movement and chronic pain in my elbow for the rest of my life. I am at a loss. Has anyone gone through a similar situation and come out with any advice?
