Less than 24 hours ago, I fell violently off of my bicycle. I landed directly down on the back of my left hand with my arm in a vertical angle. I have mild soreness in my wrist but I have intense pain in my elbow and upper forearm. I have no swelling and no bruising. My question is, do I likely have a broken bone or is it simply and bad sprain with nerve damage?
Hello, I read carefully your query and understand your concern. Your symptoms seem to be related to the injury of the elbow. I suggest doing an x-ray of the elbow to exclude fracture. Meanwhile, you can use anti-inflammatory medications to relieve the pain. I also suggest resting and maintain the area elevated and immobilized. Hope my answer was helpful. If you have further queries feel free to contact me again. Kind regards!  Chat Doctor.
