Hi
Thanks for posting on HCM
I have read and understood your concern.Sorry to hear you had a humeral fracture.
The treatment of humeral fracture like any other fracture depends on the nature of the fracture(whether simple or complex).An X ray of the humerus would help in the treatment option.However, as for the pain that comes with fractures, different line of pain drugs are prescribed depending on pain intensity.I will suggest you continue with tylenol(pain/antiinflammatory drug).Since pain unbearable, your may add tramadol. It will be wise you see an Orthopedic surgeon for your fracture management.
Hope this will help.You may write back if more concerns
Wish you a speedy recovery
