Girlfriend's elbow doesn't go straight
Hello, one thing that i have been curious lately is why my girlfriend's elbow won't go straight. It just doesn't go straight, almost anything after a 90 degree angle it is stretching her arm and begins to hurt if it stretches too hard. Her friends think its funny but accept her for it. She could have possibly broken it as a child and it didn't heal right, she said it didn't break it just sort of happened gradually. She used to receive therapy, where the therapist would just stretch on her arm and she hated it, she considered surgery but hadn't done it. Does anyone on here know what this could be preventing her arm from going straight? Possibly an alternative to fix an arm that doesnt go straight besides surgery? I think probobly not but if anyone has information as to why this would happen, it would be helpful.
