My 5 year old daughter had a hairline fracture on her elbow. She was put on a cast for 3 weeks. Cast was removed about 6 days back but is not able to straighten her elbow and it seems to be locked. Should we go back to Orthopedist?

If, there is pain on touch, then plaster cast should be applied again for 2-3 wks. Gentle physiotherapy will help to regain mobility. Kindly do no massage.
