Broken Clavicle
-
Anyone ever broke there clavicle before? Curious as I took a nice digger about a week and a half ago on some trail thrown into a tree and then onto the ground. I figured just a dislocated shoulder but now am thinking it may be more.
Just curious on what to look for, my shoulder is still a little swollen above my collar bone, but my range of motion is almost all the way back in my arm. Only time is putting on a shirt sometimes that if I have to rotate my shoulder back, excruciating pain, basically cannot even move for about a minute on account of it. I was thinking maybe just a nerve being pinched from swelling who knows? Sucks I just want to ride, looks like no gnar shuttle runs this summer

If you broke your collar bone you wouldn't be able to lift anything w/ your arm for the most part, and you can feel the bone where it's broken and it's overlapped itself.

Good deal.
My only worry is that my collar bone does not feel the same as the other, as in injured side does have a bump on top and dip in the middle where as the other does not.Figured about 3 or 4 weeks from time of injury and should be able to ride but damn, injuries suck.
Oh well it will give me time to give the cars some attention.
Might have to become a roadie...:icon_puke_r:

I broke mine in high school and it was quite painful.
The "bump" you described sounds like the bone healing itself. When the bone starts to form new calcium around the break it always adds a lot causing a bump. Natural enzymes gradually break this back down to normal.
What you need to do is drink a small sample of your urine. Then describe the taste, texture, and smell. That should give us somewhere to go from.

Go get an MRI done i dislocated my shoulder last year and i went and got some x-rays and they said everything would heal on its own. Then one day during class i reached back and it just popped out of place. I went and got an MRI and they did surgery on it and now its good. Just go get it checked out.....

I broke mine snowmobiling a year ago, i thought that i had just dislocated it cuz i heard something pop so i continued on like 30 miles to get back to the truck, then drove home 300 miles from upper michigan, and my mom made me go to the hospital the next day and i realized that it was broken and the bones were overlapping and the bone was poking at the skin. I couldn't move it tho and it was bad at times.
