I fall down from stairs and my elbow got hurt, it seemed to be normal not much pain, in x-ray not fracture found but doc said you had injury in soft tissue and need to get hard one plaster for one month. The body language of his was not satisfactory I would be feeling like cheated, he charged a lot and told me to do bone test every week. Please what should I do?

I suggest you to take second opinion as in soft tissue injury, generally we do not put plaster for more than a week. 1 month plaster will stiffen up you elbow joint. Moreover repeat x-ray every week is not indicated if first x-ray is normal.
