Do Clavicle or Collarbone Fractures Require Surgery ?

[@user-qm7nw7vd5s]

The best advice I have heard so far, on this subject. “There is no problem that surgery cannot make worse”. Cutting open the human body, putting screws into bone. That’s a big deal!

Are you able yo regain full potential of your arm ? Like can you lift heavy things like you used to before

[@lr1732]

WOW. I am impressed. I think far too many surgeons rush into surgery and the truth is that the body is amazing. I love this approach. I love how you do share the dangers and risks of surgery and it is not always best. I think it is downplayed with many surgeons. I have seen this personally. And to highlight that no 2 people are the same and no 2 injuries (even if the same injury) will be the "same" in different people. This was great! And helpful.

[@Jon-vj5dn]

I broke my collarbone playing soccer when I was 15 years old. Doctor said I didn’t need surgery and it would fuse on its own and he was right. It healed and I continued playing soccer through high school with no issues. However, after high school I got into weightlifting and noticed within a year or so into that journey that my collarbone was definitely affecting me a bit. It fused just a little bit crooked and has caused some weakness and muscle atrophy in my left shoulder and pec. I’m 29 now and am still big into weightlifting/bodybuilding but have continued to deal with that issue. In hindsight, I do wish I had gotten it surgically fixed when I was 15 but there’s no way I could have known I would get so addicted to the gym and ironically that’s about the only pursuit it would have an affect on. Just something for you young guys to think about.

[@metricdeep8856]

Yup...The gents describes my experience and healing to the T. I have some overlap and I'm good at detecting barametric pressure changes....but otherwise fine. I've seen clavacle surgeries and I beleieve it's 10X the trauma for the body to deal with. You also have a piece of metal inside of you that you don't want. The body is remarkably good at healing itself and can deal with a broken bone better than you think.

[@cXilion]

so true

[@PhilTaylorPhotog]

Great summary. I smashed mine into 6 pieces (bike) and also broke x2 ribs which weren’t discovered until 2 weeks post surgery. My surgeon gave me the option but later said he was happy I opted for surgery as “it would have never healed”. With the fact the shoulder was moving the ribs, I would have continued in pain for a long time. Now 3 weeks post surgery I’m starting to get reasonable movement although it may take longer as I’m a 40y.o. with T1D of 30 yrs.

[@lr1732]

Yeah. The body is amazing that is for sure. And using herbal remedies and such can help a ton. My gf husband broke his back and it was really bad but they could not do surgery due to the location of the break. The prognosis was not very good and (his wife called me and asked what could they do if anything) and he used herbs and essential oils; (and massage as soon as he could); and his healing was remarkable. The doctors were absolutely stunned. I do not think nutrition and herbs and things of this nature get nearly enough attention. I have seen them do amazing things. My daughter had a complete rupture of her hamstring (complete tendon avulsion) and it was completely reattached in 3 days with natural remedies; massage, tons of raw milk and basically a meat diet. We continued that for weeks and she has no issues with it to this day. That was 10 years ago. She was/is a dancer and was able to dance on it in about a month; and never had any pain or issues. I hope someday this knowledge of healing makes it to more people. It could help a lot of people.

I broke my collar bone after a car accident about 6 years ago. I never went back to the doctor after my initial hospital visit. I was given a sling and didn't use it as long as I was supposed to and continued to carry my daughter who was 9 months old at the time. I actually dropped her once because my arm gave out. Luckily I was putting her to bed and she fell into her crib.. However now, 6 years later, I continue to have pain in my left shoulder and my sciatica is REALLY bad now on the left side too. Is that related? (Sciatica and previous unhealed collar bone?) Makes me wonder. My pain is getting worse and worse with age. I can't even sleep on my left side because it's too painful in the mornings if I do. I wonder if I should go to a doctor to get it looked at. I'm scared of surgery. But this pain is even harder to deal with. I can't even work because it's too painful to stand for more that a couple hours at a time. I try excersizes and stretching which gives momentary relief. But it's always back within a couple hours or the next day.

Be aware even with less than 2 cm of shortening you are highly likely to have biomechanical problems with your shoulder.

[@Romans8-9]

I know what you mean. I´m in a slightly different situation, in that I had surgery a week after the accident. I had 1.5cm of overlap, but I´m fairly certain without surgery I would have kept feeling that daily "burning" pain for a relatively long time afterwards, since the bone can take months and months to fully heal. I had conflicting advice and I had a much tougher decision since my own father who is a radiologist told me that I should go with the conservative approach and not have surgery. The orthopaedic surgeon told me I had something like a 30% chance of bone union without surgery so in the end I chose to have it, and I´m glad I did since i can´t imagine having that pain for potentially months afterwards. I´m now two months post-op and no longer have any pain, just numbness in the area and currently still doing physio.

These doctors I swear... I had my left side collar bone fixed with A plate and 6 screws 7 months ago and it healed perfect and was great. I now broke the right side and I have doctors like you telling me what your gonna fix and what you aren’t... you aren’t the one who will be in pin or risk of improper healing. Both are overlapped now I’m arguing with this doctor as my skin has a bone popping up into the skin, and is pinching the nerve and or muscle when I take a big bite. Why don’t you do what patients ask instead of your high and mighty opinion. Y’all play god to often I get your experts but y’all sound scared to operate or fix people.

I’m also a thin guy and my skin healed perfectly within 2 weeks. Don’t let these doctors bullcrap you. Go see someone else if they try to push you off if your collar bone is in pieces and or over lapped.

This type of surgery is very risky. There are so many nerves and blood vessels and major stuff so close to the clavicle that the risks of clavicle surgery are much greater than others so many like a more conservative approach. My gf is a surgical tech and works at a level one trauma hospital and they have some excellent surgeons. She said they rarely do a clavicle surgery since it is that risky. The need has to be very great for them to even consider it. The risks are more serious than other surgeries.
