broken elbow

Good morning, I am an Israeli on vacation in the U.S. I broke my elbow on 24/12/05 AND went to the hospital. They told me that I have a break (fracture) of both bones in the forearm (radius & ulna). The bones are not out of place AND did not need to be set. However, they put a splint. I am still suffering pain in my elbow, especially during the nights. I can’t straighten OR raise my arm fully AND can’t turn my wrist fully (it’s too painful). 1. Is it too early to start doing physiotherapy to the hand? 2. Should I be still suffering pain, even though it has almost past a month? 3. When should I take off the splint? Thank you AND have a great week

Good morning, Just wanted to add another question, should I be able to feel, a month after the injury, an improvement in the ability to move my hand, improvement in the range of motion? Thank you in advance AND have a nice week
