Not much of myositis ossificans visible.
It might be in early stage, which may need further evaluation .
Looks like you have post operative/ traumatic siffness, this requires you to do physiotherapy beyond average movement range.
Next Steps
Pain control is prime and take Cap Indocap SR 75 once daily to prevent myositis ossificans.

Try physiotheraphy first and you might benefit from injection. If nothing helps- surgery is the solution. Dr Nandan Adla in Hyderabad is good Elbow surgeon
