My Granddaughter fell and broke an area by her elbow. Right by the growth plate. Her Mom took her to the emergency room because the doctors office was too busy. She was the one that is 8 years old and loves to play with my dogs, her name is Katie...Her Mom has to call the specialist today because they were not in when she got home yesterday afternoon. I will let you know what happens after she can get in to the specialist...she does have a temporary cast on for now. She was playing in the camper with a friend and fell from the top bunk area.
The elbow area is not a good place to break. I hope she is not in too much pain. Extra special prayers go up for her, Sherry.
Sorry to hear about fall. Hope she is feeling okay and not hurting too much by now. My oldest grandson fell and broke his arm about an inch above the elbow when he was 7. It is a tricky spot to heal but his did just fine and now at almost 13 he has pretty much full range of motion. He decided to stand on a bag of volleyballs while sharpening his pencil in school one day.
Ouch! I had a habit of doing that when I was a kid. I think my folks thought I'd do it every year. I broke my arm three times. dooley
That is a tough place to break.They usually want put pins in those areas because it can effect the crowth of this bone.Prayers out Katie's way.
Poor Katie. Best wishes for a speedy and trouble free healing, and a big hug from us. Please keep us updated.
I hope the specialist can do something quickly for your grand daughter Sherry and that she's not in too much pain. Poor Katie!! Give her our love and best wishes.
Youch! Thinking of Katie and her sore elbow and sending more healing cyber thoughts through the airways.
Ouch, that sounds painful. I wonder if it will require a pin or two. Well, keep us informed. Wishingf a speedy recovery.
