Reply to "inner elbow pain 13 yr old"

You all will not believe this.  My son went through with the rehab process like a champ return to play two weekends ago and looked great.  Well...this past week at the football spring game he severely dislocated the elbow of his throwing arm.  It was a horrible thing to even look at.  He had surgery yesterday morning to insert a screw to reattach the medial epicondyle.  The ortho says the way his arm (medial epicondyle) broke, probably saved the ligaments/tendons on the inner part of his elbow.  The Dr. says the ligaments on the outer part of the elbow will scar up and heal on their own.  The boy can't catch a break.  Needless to say we are faced with a much longer rehab now.  I am not sure how long and what all it will be.  We will find that part out next week when go back for a follow up.  The kid is devastated.
