10 Dislocated Elbow Symptoms
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
Symptom #3: Reduced Feeling
Reduced feeling below the dislocated elbow could also be a dislocated elbow symptom. This occurs in cases where the dislocation has caused severing or pinching of the nerves running across the elbow. Damaged blood vessels may also carry inadequate blood to the forearm and hand.
In such a state, the electrical signals carried through the nerves may leak along the way and, therefore, fail to reach the targeted tissues. As a result, and depending on which nerves and the extent of damage, parts of the forearm may have little or no feeling. To prevent this dislocated elbow symptom from becoming a permanent state, seek medical care without delay.
