Dislocated Elbow

Dislocation usually occurs when a person falls on an outstretched hand. The impact of the hand hitting the ground travels straight up the forearm to the elbow. When the hand is turned, this impact can force the elbow out of its socket. Another cause of dislocation is automobile accidents when people brace for impact.

There are two types of elbow dislocations: partial and complete. When an elbow is completely dislocated there is obvious deformation and acute pain. The bones can relocate correctly with the partial elbow dislocation, making the joint appear normal. However, partial relocation can recur over time as ligaments are stretched and torn. Even within these types of dislocations, they can be simple dislocations with no broken bones or complex with injury to bones, ligaments, muscles, and blood vessels.

Some dislocations can be treated non-surgically, but some will require orthopedic surgery and physical therapy. Our experts are your best resource for diagnosing and ultimately repairing joint problems. At Orthopedic Health of Kansas City, we will treat you effeciently with state-of-the-art orthopedic care. We’ll be alongside you every step of the way—from diagnosis to orthopedic elbow surgery to therapy—and will have you moving again in no time.
