How should I handle a fracture of the lesser trochanter of the left femur?

Patient's question:

I got drunk with a group of misfits a while ago and, on impulse, decided to go street racing with them. As expected, something went wrong. When I went to the hospital for an X-ray, it showed a fracture of the left olecranon! I don't know how hard it will be to recover from this or if it will leave me disabled in the future.

Doctor's answer:

This is my friend. Hello. Fracture of the left radial head caused by trauma can lead to limited joint mobility, pain, swelling, and abnormal joint movement. The appropriate treatment plan should be selected based on the results of imaging tests. Generally, with active treatment and functional exercises, disability can be avoided. During this period, it's important to pay attention to calcium supplementation, actively exercise, take care of oneself, and adjust one's mindset.
