The Clavicle (or collarbone)

Here's some more bony stuff - let's look at the clavicle bone, the joints at either end, the ligaments holding it to other bones, and the muscles that attach to it. Since I've broken my clavicle in the past I can also talk about what it's like to do that, and we can look at acromioclavicular (or AC) separations.

Went to the comments sections just to see if I'm not the only one lol

[@Duskysky1]

Omg yes

[@smoothsailin9351]

Don't worry about getting too deep or technical with how much detail to include regarding ridges and bony landmarks and the like. Best on our ends to watch something with too much detail than to spend time briefing up on content that doesn't contain everything we need to review. We will tune out the details that aren't relevant to our current studies and can always come back to re-watch in later years of our degrees. Thanks heaps for taking the time to make these.

[@PoM-MoM]

Excellent ... everything you need to know about Clavicle. Bone, muscle and ligaments .

[@KangaroosVideos]

Wish you made these videos 3 years earlier!! You're such a good anatomy resource + love the clinical relevance!

[@stumichaelrennie5639]

Amazing to watch! I've just fractured my clavicle recently! I've had more knowledge from this man than my doctors! You'd make a great tv presenter. Cheers 👍.

[@PoM-MoM]

I showed my Dr this video to Explain exactly where my pain is at, no bs or wasted appointments anymore. I only need the Dr for surgery (not this time) and and prescription needs. 😊👍

[@EricBoyd-904]

Very informative video, friend. I broke my clavicle a month ago and I wish I watched this right afterwards. My orthopedic doc spent less than 5 minutes in the room and told me little more than "wear a sling". He offered virtually no other info on what the healing process would look like.

[@bingm8109]

I experienced the same thing. No help at all from the ortho.

[@24MPZ]

Watching for the 3rd time while recovering from a broken clavicle (mountain bike crash). I've scowered the whole web for all the info about it I can find, this video is the very best.

[@Osiwan960]

Hey Sam, i really enjoy learning with your subtle humour, i can't stop giggling by watching your way of touching and moving the skeletons & muscle models hahaha TYVM this is so awesome !!!

[@shadesawayfromdark6381]

... Ohkay.... Anatomy can be fun too.. Omg this is spiritual enlightenment

[@soulitude_reem]

The way i love your display picture 🤭

[@surat8591]

First, I love how genuine you are!! And Sir, I've learned a lot from your videos!!! Thank you so much!!

[@maryamtebib7276]

[@monica11119]

I'm having a blast reviewing anatomy! I enjoy all your videos, thank you Sam! Stay safe, regards from Utah.

[@generaldwane1462]

Every time I watch it I learn new things. I already have watched it 3 time and I have all the knowledge for clavicle

[@sittingducc838]

Honestly if you dislike this youre heartless. Dr webster is a freaking genius

[@kevinprado8534]

Helps me a lot to unterstand what I have to do and where I have to be careful to be back at the gym asap

[@marklenard9394]

Absolutely love your content. It's been incredibly helpful throughout my study and is always outstanding as a concise refresher.

[@elsagrace3893]

Sam Webster you make anatomy lively and interesting to me. Very engaging. It seems that you deliver the information from your body and being rather than a cerebral rehearsal of drudgery. You look nice to me too. I enjoy your expressions.

[@SamWebster]

Thank you. The human body is a wonderful and complicated thing.

[@iffatsiddiqui1926]

Love it. Thanks. Nice, soft voice, too.

[@addysnation813]

thank you so much sir for clearing my doubts.

[@MrBear80]

Amazing Knowledge great detail, I separated my left shoulder 6 months ago now broke my collarbone 12 days ago. Explains well.

[@lmenzol]

Wow thank you so much for all this information. I was scared that I had torn ligaments from my lack of mobility. But I notice I have more flexibility every week, great video 🙏

[@enyarishi4344]

you're amazing at explaining. thank you so much

[@sadmanrahmansaquib7731]

Thank you sir, you really made it easy for me!

[@DrShades2011]

Fantastically insightful video especially laying here having had surgery yesterday to plate my non union fracture eight months down the line.

[@myhijratech424]

I had an AC joint separation during motorcycle accident 10 years ago and the clavicle end protruded from the acromium perhaps due to ligament tear. No surgery was done but the separation cause a pain when I sleep on my right side. The pain still exist until today but already immuned to it. But as I got older the separation now caused pain to my neck muscle down to the sternum joint area too

[@sapphirealien4215]

Thanks a lot for this . I am a medical student and this has helped me a lot to understand the clavicle.

[@garypitt7020]

Thanks bro for a really detail video.

Thank you so much Sam❤

[@ahamirrealm7340]

[@fatemaalya]

very informative, thank u Sam!

[@itsayush_]

I'm just speechless. It's just fantastic. Hat's off to you sir. Redefined the ability to give clarity in subjects like anatomy. Nobody: Who's he,teaching anat with such transparency? His students: The king,the legend,the myth, Sir sam webster. Nobody: Shall we bow down to him? His students: Definetely yes.🙇‍♂️🙇‍♂️ Love from India.🙏

[@KristiKilber]

Like your videos. They are great.

[@MrAnilinov]

Finally, now I know what causes my Clavicle pain, it's the subclavius muscle. It's giving me so much trouble when lifting weights, now I need to figure out how not to stress it any further when working out.

[@amandabentzen9276]

Thx for u videos. They are really helpfull ;)

[@anniehenderson1874]

[@bharatbhagyvidhata1352]

Great Video, Nice session, Thank you for that info Sam. 👍👍 I fell down from cycle, bumped on backside of shoulder & got coller bone fractured, today is 9th day. Co codamol is the only relief. All the best to you Sam. Subscribing you, recommanding your channel to friends.

Great video do you have any videos on ac separation information in more detail like effects of having a grade 5 tear

[@muhammadtaif6683]

Nothing more to say But love u sir God bless u ❤️

[@myla6135]

Ha! ha! All you sporty types falling off motor bikes or push bikes. I fell off my feet! Blush. Didn't snap my clavicle but did plenty of damage to humeral head, rotator cuff and surrounding tissues. Never knew how much bones could hurt and bleed till then. Nor how much torn tendons, poor posture and hopeless muscles can make recovery such a painful and fraught process. 😢 Thanks for another great video.

[@jaymingadani4475]

Very helpful

[@brenttaylor5425]

this is very helpful on understanding what i am going through. I am still trying to understand what type of fracture mine is.

[@user-df3gf6wh1x]

Clavicle, clavicle easy to break Its protectors are strong, Mr. Ligaments, from front:sternal to back:scapula But if they break, then it is bye bye for you, difficult to get back ur original Add 6 muscles.SCM, SH, subCla,Trap,Del, and P.major❤

[@grantcarpenter9722]

Funny you mention dips. I broke my clavicle doing weighted dips with 135 lbs hanging off me. Now I've got a gnarly bump on my clavicle and some muscle moved where it shouldn't be.

[@isabeljohansen5328]

Would it be possible to cut off a little bit tissue of the sub costal angle and sew it together again - the front angle there between the ribs so they come tighter and closer together a little bit - to make a tinier waist surgically - more of a V shaped rib cage?

[@lesleysprake1045]

Really interesting sam. I broke my clavicle when I was 5 I think? I’ve got issues swelling and inflammation in my sternoclavicular joint and the acromium joint too shoulder rather painful actually including neck muscles.

[@whatrtheodds]

So first, thanks for the upload💖🤩 2nd I'm a massage therapist student, so I thought you might like to know who some of your audience is.

I have a bump/lump 2 inches from the center of my clavicle- any idea what this could be from?

love how you blur out the pelvic part of the model,, i only noticed it towards the end of video. Thanks sir it's a very helpful lesson, love it!

[@riperoni861]

I broke my collarbone the same way haha cycling. But someone fell right in front of me who was also cycling and I ran over their bike and flew over the bars and the first thing that hit was my left shoulder and helmet. Now it’s been almost 2 weeks since my surgery and I’m getting better everyday.

[@kennedymukiri6919]

Are you cycling

[@janefetsch446]

What should I do about an enlarged right clavicle area where attached to my sternum. I don't believe I have a break but feel constant tension and think there is some trapped gas. I had rotator cuff repair surgery Dec 2016. Since then I have been through routine prescribed physical therapy and just finished 6 weeks of therapy this past April/May of 2021 for pinch nerve at C-6 & C-7 with some arthritis wrapped around cervical spine. I am starting regular massage therapy hopefully on a weekly basic. Any insight or advice?

[@kevin6856]

Hello dear doctor, thanks very much for your worldwide training videos. Can you please answer my question? Would the space between first rib and clavicle bone decrease when hands overhead and both hands in front? I was diagnosed with vascular TOS. Looking forward to your kind answer. Regards

[@Osiwan960]

Hi there, i'm not a doctor (yet) but i think it would really depend on your posture and how other surrounding muscles are working. Like if you are driving a car while very tired and you are leaning forward without using your trapezius to pull on your scapula and letting gravity pull down while your hands are on the wheel then it can be very bad for blood flow of certain muscles & organs compared to a standing posture lifting light objects while properly using your lats to keep your shoulder complex stable and solid. Those are just examples but i would really go see an anatomy expert like a Physio Therapist in person if i was in your situation. Good luck and stay safe ☺

[@williambuckley6128]

I'm recovering from a MtB crash where I had a distal fracture. My surgeon put an L Plate in. I'm all back together but he has to take the plate out in 4 to 6 months. That sucks.

[@WavedancerWesterlyfulmar]

Broken collar bone in snow tubing accident last week. Thankfully no surgical procedure required (on holiday in US visiting my husband who is on assignment for work). So lump is normal? Worried I had displaced because could feel clicking & pain during 1st week. Think I pulled something under shoulder blade agony to sneeze/ cough

[@kyraaholiver5473]

Great video!! Thank you sooo much. I wish you could make a video exclusively on the shoulder, where it is in particular and it's components

[@dominiquebillingslea7703]

Is there any recommendation for what order to watch the anatomy videos?

[@paramjitsinghbrar815]

Dr mitesh dave anatomy video

[@333btd]

I think I separated or done something at the SC joint 2 1/2 years ago. I've seen lots of doctors incl shoulder and spine surgeons, and have no diagnosis to date. But I bet it's the SC joint

[@edwardw2652]

How did you describe a pain as "Green" and why did it make sense to me?

[@curiousj1533]

So if we dont get surgery and its not joined but theres ligaments or muscle formed. Is it alright? Can we work out later?

[@kiranpandita8761]

absolutely lovable video thank you

[@kranyat2024]

What if my colar bone moved but not painfully one is like down one up whay do to please I don't feel pain but looks deform:( anything that I can do?

[@madsleonardholvik3040]

Thanks for interesting video! I did chin ups last week and after I had pain in my collar bone. When I roll on my back roller I feel sore points in my back. Is my collar bone pain caused by my back muscles pulling on the collar bone?

[@TezTezTezTezTez]

I went over the handlebars on my bike and fractured my clavicle. 8 weeks now and still a long way to go. The NHS don't want to operate...getting fed up now though 🙄

[@24MPZ]

Did mine 11 days ago, crashing my hardtail on a dirtjump line. The strange thing is I have nearly 95% range of motion and about 50% strength already. The swelling is still pretty insane though, I think that's what is holding everything together. Did you notice anything similar in the beginning?

[@ottiliemilne6167]

what is a "strut" you mention it at 10:13

[@grindingvomitreflux]

04:05 I know that feeling so well! fractured my both collarbones, not at the same time, but right now I'm on my 50th day from my bike accident and I've been recurrently coming back to this video over and over again just to see if I can get some info that helps me out to heal faster and I have a question for you. How many days did you wait to perform those exercise shown at the beginning of the video? Thanks man! Great content here!
