an examination
Related inspection
General radiography to examine the limbs and joint movements of the limbs and joints of the limbs
Abdominal elbow swelling, elbow flexion and extension dysfunction, passive flexion and extension local pain increased, elbow fossa tenderness, longitudinal forearm slamming humeral head pain. X-ray films showed that the fracture occurred at the base of the humeral head, the fracture line was on the coronal plane, and the fracture block was displaced upward or with rotational displacement.
Diagnosis
Differential diagnosis
Severe pain in the elbow, tenderness and swelling: localized swelling, pain and tenderness of the clavicle fracture are more obvious.
Swelling and tenderness of the elbow: intercondylar fracture of the humerus, severe pain after trauma to the elbow joint, extensive tenderness, obvious swelling, and may be accompanied by subcutaneous congestion.
Elbow pain: external humeral epicondylitis, iliac crest nerve vascular bundle is embedded in the elbow can cause elbow pain.
Elbow sprain: The elbow sprain is mostly under the action of external force, causing the elbow to have an abnormal range of motion, causing damage to the medial and lateral collateral ligaments of the elbow.
