Arm and elbow injuries cause pain and suffering and can span from short term impacts such as a broken elbow injury or sprain, through to more serious and potentially life changing injuries.

Even if you make a full recovery, from a broken arm, for example, there will be a period of time where you will need to adapt to carrying out tasks differently, or not being able to complete some task to the ability you were able to previously.

If you have a severe arm or elbow injury leading to permanent disability, then the changes you need to make to your everyday routine will be much more far-reaching.
