@physio Food .... Sir I had collar bone/Clavical fracture in an accident 2months ago. I had surgery of collar bone but still there is still pain sometimes at Clavical. Now I want to return to sports. Sir I want to know how much time it will take to heal properly.
Im 13 years old, broke my collarbone about a month ago... it doesnt hurt as much as it used to. I can do some movements but certain movements hurt still. But if you’re reading this, I hope you recover fast and dont worry, this isnt forever
@@PhysioFood 7 weeks in, i feel little to no pain. I should be ready to go back to baseball next week. Thank God he supported me throughout this journey of pain🙏🙏
I'm 47, wiped out on my bicycle and double fractured my right clavicle. Had surgery with plate and screws 4 weeks ago. Still healing and wearing the sling. Hard to imagine being able to lift my arm again, but I'm optomistic. I'll be starting rehab soon. Thank you for this video!
I'm 73 and flipped my bike a month ago and broke my collarbone. The surgeon did not push surgery but left it as an option. My bone was broken at an oblique angle and the top part was on the bottom, and there was 1/4 inch of displacement. I went for the surgery and am so glad I did. Gave up the sling a few days ago and hoping to get back on the bike very soon! Did you have a full recovery?
Had a midshaft clavicle fracture 11/23/23. At 30 days took off the sling. At 40 days started using my arm again lifting lightly, stretching. At 45 days had xray and it appears I've healed poorly. It's now 52 days and I don't have great range of motion. Best advice I can give is to leave your sling on the full 6 weeks even if you're feeling better. I believe I started using my arm too soon.
without surgery theres always a 50% chance the bone wont heal in correct position limiting your range of motion... the sling and other tools are very poor in keeping your body fixed, you can just make a turn in your sleep and its fkd
@jimyjamal7353 it's now 8 months later. My arm is not the same . I don't have nearly the same strength. the range of motion is back pretty much. I wish I had the surgery, I think.
@@SeanBob1985I understand completely. I broke mine and it is in a weird position and poking up. I think it might be a Nonunion. It was almost four months ago. I drummed on it after it broke and that wasn't a good idea. Have you done these exercises? I'm just now starting to do these and I think they are helping a bit everyday. If it doesn't get better within a month, I'll eventually probably get surgery if it still burns in the morning. I know how you feel. We might have to eventually get the surgery. I hope you regain some of that strength and full rotation.
Fractured my collarbone playing soccer… a week later it was healing well until I felt it pop and I couldn’t move… had to go to the er again and it was completely snapped the second time… had to get surgery because no meds could keep the pain down… the surgery saved me frlm weeks of traumatizing pain… if you are reading this and nothing eases the pain and you can barely walk I would consult an orthopedic surgeon and ask if surgery is the answer because it was for me. I now have a plate and 8 screws and am 2 weeks out of surgery with bassicly no pain anymore and out of the sling as well… I wish all of you guys the best and hope you heal fast… remeber take meds if it hurts don’t fight the pain it’s not worth it
@@monirulislammonir3150 videos on UA-cam and take matters into your own hands. The second I could walk again I started swinging my arm back and forth leaning on a chair. All you need is videos and discipline. Good luck
@@monirulislammonir3150 after 5 weeks I was pressing 70s again on incline press. It felt weird for a while and sore but I eased into it. Just make sure daily you are excising and stretching doing anything you can to recover.
@@monirulislammonir3150 start weight training. Eat alot of food. start buiulding up muscle all around your body. I started with PT excersises on youtube then went slowly into weights. Did 20 lb dumbells on incline press then the next week 25 then 30 then 40 50 60 70 80. Eventually you come back fully but take it slow.
You just got yourself a new subscriber. I've just recently returned from the hospital after a serious motorcycle accident where one of my injuries was a broken clavicle that required a contoured titanium plate surgery. As a result of my other injuries, I'm limited to the beginning stages of range of motion exercises at this time. However your video is one of the best I've come across for rehab as it applies to me. Thank you for sharing your skills and experience.
Im 3 weeks into a fractured clavicle. My doctor gave me like a 2 min talk on how to have it in a sling and just taught me the pendulum exercise. I had to research everything online they gave me very little info on how to heal or recover.
@YahirSvt i did not have surgery because the displacement was not to far apart it was only a small gap in the break in reality my bone did not fully heal for a year but I had like 75 percent mobility in about 5 months. I was also not lifting heavy for about 8 months.
@@Jesus.Xdamn bro, seems like recovery time is allover the place for everyone. ive heard a month all the way to a year and some change. Im barely on week one lets see how it goes 🤞🏽
@@YahirSvt if you are older than 35 your recovery time will be slower bones,nerves and muscles heal slower past 35 when I was 16 my bones healed better.
About two and a half months ago I was practicing low speed motorcycle maneuvers when my engine quit and slammed me hard on the pavement on my left side. I was within my "golden hour" so when I got over my initial shock, I was able to pick up my 500 lb bike and ride it home. The collar bone at the break started swelling almost immediately, but by not moving my left arm away from my body, I was able to control the pain. A day later, I went to the ER to be X-rayed and yes, I had broken the collar bone at a rather long, shallow angle and it was naturally in opposition. They gave me a sling, but to put it on was too painful, so I never used it. A week or so later I was able to get my clothes off an took my first shower. After two weeks, with a large lump where the break was, I was able to start using my left arm, but with some pain. I have many chores to do every day, so I had to work through the pain, trusting my body to know when to cut back. When it would hurt too much, I would stop, but continued to use the arm and shoulder as much as possible. To my satisfaction, I quickly regained nearly full motion within about three weeks, but with some pain. After about a month and a half, I had full motion and full use of my left arm even to the point of lifting heavy weights and all completely without pain as if the injury had never happened. I still have a large lump of what feels like hard bone where the fracture was. By the way, I am a very short and active 77 year old guy who has taken Vitamin K3 and D2 supplements for quite some time before this injury. I have taken some rather bad falls from horses and motorcycles mostly without injury and always considered myself as having "strong bones."
My clavicle bone got fractured Feb. 28th 2024, and had surgery 03.22.2024. Recovery opt going into 5 weeks. My arm hurts, its numb and swollen around the upper area. I'm taking it slow and doing the exercises the Dr. team advised me to. Physical Therapy starts soon. This video is super helpful! Thank you, and for those thats scared or going through it, be calm and listen to classical or instrumental smooth music, it helps.💙
OK - This vid works. No BS sideshows. Just stretch & strength instructions. Dude gets it. Six days removed from a collarbone fracture & I'm ready to knock this out & going to hit replay for a while.
@@PhysioFood OK, not much of an update. But I'm recovered??? Doc said it was a option to plate it up ( full fracture w/displacement). What,really? Said, I'd be fine without surgery. I guess he was right. Did the exercises, tempered my expectations but I'm back running, carrying a backpack, generic lifting functions. Lotsa clicking going on in the region. Never went back for a follow up x-ray. Maybe I don't want to know!?!?
i broke my collar bone 5 days ago and this really helped me with the small exercises and reliving some mobility into my arm, but on a side note your arms are huge bro you dentally go to the gym and it shows those are some shotgun arms bro good work.
when i broke my collar bone, I couldn't even sit up in bed by myself the first week. I was so grateful for my daughter coming over to stay with me the first few days. Remember to ask for help, its always debilitating to break any bone!
I broke my collar bone August 25,22 and got surgery today September 13,22 ,And im just tryna hear other people story's i wish i could post a picture my bone was broken in two one side of my bone was almost poking through my neck & the other side seem so far apart i was petrified when the orthopedic showed me the x-ray & said surgery was the only way ,But giving all my thanks too the most high i made it & the hard part is over ,I think this is a helpful video after i go to my follow up in two weeks ima see if i could started taking your tips very helpful thank you .
Everyone is different. I just suffered a serious fracture of my collarbone. My advice is to only rely on the sling or brace for the first couple weeks. After that let your arm dangle to start re-building strength and flexibility. If it starts to ache rest it by sitting down and resting your arm on a arm rest. You will start to notice more mobility as it strengthens. I only wear a brace when I sleep. After a few weeks I still had slight aching pains in my shoulder, but had mobility. I was able to kayak 4 miles in Key Largo with minimal discomfort. I guess the paddling motion of kayaking is perfect for a healing collar-bone. No one would have known had I not told them it was broken. They were surprised when I did. Heck, I was surprised. This was not a minor fracture. After six weeks was able to do 5 pull ups and 5 chin-ups. Push up's were a little harder, but I was still able to do 5 as well. I can usually do about 35-50. And that's currently where I'm at on my journey. I am 56 and wise enough to know to give it 4-6 month's, no matter how strong it feels, before I attempt anymore stunt's or any situations that would cause me to fall and re-break it. I also take D3 for bone health, seems to be working. And of course exercise. Most my friends said that people in their 50's don't heal like young people? I'm out to prove them wrong, buy stressing the fact that fitness play's a major role in the aging process.
I took my sling off day 3 and 4 (broken collarbone and scapular 8screws and a plate later) thinking I was recovering fast come to find out I was so swollen that I couldn't feel the pain day 5 and 6 reminded me of how much pain I was in lol started wearing my sling after that 😂
Fractured my collarbone playing football, I'm 27 years old and very active, about 9 weeks in now, I've wore a sling for 6 weeks and only started getting full range of motion back after about 7-8 weeks... currently working on strengthening again now as any physical activity causes aching In the arm! Hope you recover fast if you're going through it as well! Can't wait to get back to all my hobbies 👍
@LawrentNgoma-ki7pu I did yeah, tbh took a lot longer to heal than expected, I thought I was OK and then got quite bad again, I'm only really now getting back to everything, 5 months later
@@danhearsey3518 l just broke my left shoulder clavicle almost 7 days ago of course I can lift my arm but l don't know if my clavicle will reconnect as before 🙏🙏
Tomorrow will be 3 months since I got in a bad wreck and broke/displaced my collar bone and I have a pinched nerve in my neck on the same side and in my lower back. Had to wait 35 days to have surgery to plate the bone with 6 screws put it in. Mine broke about 3/4 of a inch from the end where it meets my shoulder Right above the AC cup. It was very painful worst pain I've ever experienced but now I'm 7.5 weeks from when I had surgery and it still has its days when it hurts an is very tight. But I've been doing physical therapy for the pass 3.5 weeks and it's made a big difference. P.S. the exercises that are shown in this are the same exercises they've showed me in therapy.
i have a fractured clavicle and for the first few weeks i can't move arms, even just a little movement hurts a lot. But everyday I feel a lot better, I can use my injured arm now to grab things but there are several angle that still hurts. I am on my 8 weeks of recovery, just keep on praying and surely our injuries will be back to normal
@@allamsrikanth3453 I am fully recovered now, Alhamdullilah 🙏🏼 if you have the same injury, just give it time and be patient, you’re fracture will heal
@@thetricky5569 my left clavicle splits and it was totally broken, the doctor didn’t advice me to do a surgery and told me to just not move it. And after 2 months I am fully recovered as if there’s no injury happened
Just fractured mine two breaks in bone it was in line. A week later, it shifted and drooped bone became out of line looking like a z pattern was hurting badly. I decided to get surgery with plate and screws much better now. I think surgery is the way to go once the bone is out of line.
Can u please please do a video about explaining how to heal a fractured fibula (which hasn't shifted) fast as possible what calcium foods do I need, and how and when would I return to football (as a striker position) I'm wearing a boot instead of a cast just so u know. And exercises for how to really strengthen my ankles and bones it would be really helpful and appreciated if u can do a video on this thank you.🙏🏽
Very good video. I'm wondering how soon the exercises can be implemented. It will be helpful to see which ones are the ones I could do at the beginning, 4weeks, 6 weeks and so forth. Thanks for putting this information out there.
I was hit by a car riding my bike. I'm 9 weeks in. Still sleeping in a recliner and my shoulder is still sore and my arm is weak. I'm going to do these exercises! Mine was a hit and run. 😔
Dear PTA sir, Thank you very much for your video on Rehab collar bone fracture. Really it is very useful. But I am having small doubt that, when should these exercises after the injury took place. Say for example, after one week from the date of injury, do Wrist extensor, after two weeks wrist flexion, etc. like this please list out the time and exercise name. It will be very useful for doing the exercise in sequence after injury.
new subscriber here, Im on my 4th week since i broke my colar bone, no surgery, when can I do these excercises? Thanks bro. hope everyone here recovers quickly.
I acquired a -L- Collar bone fracture on We. Oct. 25, 2023 @6:10am motorcycle wreck. Had emergency surgery clavicle repair. Almost 6 weeks ago. I have not begun to rehab yet. Plate surgical install.
Thank you for taking the time to put together such a well done and helpful video. Want to get on track to heal as quickly/safely as I can to get back at it!!
Thanks for great video So much depends on severity of break , broke my collarbone clean break no displacement and was able to start exercising very lightly within days , 4 weeks in now and very little pain and can work manually again … but physio is so important
Pumped seeing the in-depth detail of all the exercises in this video so thank you, even though I wasn't able to do most with a broken hand bravo on this video. very detailed and helpful.

Thanks for your video. I am 48-year-old man, and I have broken my clavicle 6 weeks ago while I was performing Parallel Bar Dip exercises, and I wonder why? just by doing a parallel exercise my left-hand clavicle broke! for 5 weeks I used shoulder sling. Now I want to go back to gym, but I don't know when!
Collar bone mid fracture and dislocated AC joint. ( Broke opposing wrist also😅) I refused surgery on both. Went home, immobilized for 2 or 3 weeks. Then used figure of 8 brace for AC joint. Exercised both every day.
My collarbone was broken in a car accident 33 years ago. As I get older (I'm 52), it aches and I haven't found anyway to relieve it. My collarbone healed so that there's a lump. It aches underneath the "bump". It's getting more painful with age. I will try this! Thank you!
On January 3, 23 I slipped and fall on a rainy night. It broke by collar bone at my shoulder and dislocated it at my sternum. The collar bone was driven across my sternum for about 7 inches. As I recovered from the fall, it fell back into play at my sternum. It left a swelling across my sternum. Now I have a swelling across my sternum nearly touching my throat. What can I do to reduce the swelling?
Hi, thanks for the Video , my daughter had a nasty fall playing football & I'm pretty sure she has broken it. X-ray tomorrow .thanks for the info from Ireland. I will have be patient with her recovery as she's a teenager 😮.
Just broke mine on Tuesday ebike wipeout to sidewalk. It’s Thursday now and I’m seeing bone specialist on this coming Wed to see if surgery is needed based on the break position on the bone It’s been sore but nights are very difficult to get through
I’m 18 clean snapped my left clavicle had to have 2 plates 6 screws in about 7 weeks ago been out of a sling for about 3 weeks and was told don’t need rehab doctor says about a month and I’ll be fully cleared
Hi lovely, I'm 38yrs old woman and I've broke my collar bone. 3weeks in and I'm still in loads of pain. I just got back from my first check up app and the DR actually turned around and said that I don't need paink!llers anymore and I don't need my sling indoors anymore even tho I can't even put my arm down without screaming in pain, so any additional advice would be amazing plz!!! x💙x
I’m 14 and snapped it half and they were overlapping like an x and I had to get surgery, it’s been about a week now but things are getting better fast, still can’t lift my arm up can only lift it about 1/4 of the way up
Just broke my collar bone last week, again (about 10 years ago). Just walking and car ride are terrible, the are gets irritated. The worst pain is in my back by Scapula. Taking my sling off a lot and working the hand as you said, feel the pain stop.
i broke my right collar bone roughly 12 years ago, front wheel cased the landing on my bike and slammed into the landing ramp collar bone first.. hardly felt anything at all. Tried to start riding again and i could hear a clicking noise and felt a bit light headed; clean break in the middle took 5 weeks to recover and have no issues whatsoever. 2 weeks ago i broke my left, full force dumped by a double wave surfing at the beach and this one was intense.. very painful, broken at the end near shoulder. Needed surgery and a plate put in, hell of a lot worse and uncomfortable.. going to require a bit more time with recovery i would imagine.
I have my collar bone fractured due to motorcycle accident last October 25 2023 . What are the things that i need to do in order to heal and back it in normal lining? Thank you 🙏
Hi after surgery of collarbone how long will be recovery time. As doctor says at least 6 to 8 week it may take thanks for video will start doing few gentle exercises.
Fantastic video , I’m 6 days pre op , all ready getting good range of motion , does this video still apply even when the collar bone has been plated ? I’m out of my sling most of the day as I find it more annoying and painful to be in it , eagerly waiting your reply as I’m wanting to rehabs best I can , thanks for the great video
Hi, I have a suspected clavicle fracture following a fall, just under three weeks ago. My Doctor says I don't don't need a sling/support, so not sure whether this was good advice or not? He said the only way to know for sure, how bad the fracture is, is for me to visit the hospital emergency dept, but advised against it, as I could be sitting in there for hours, due to our NHS being under such pressure at the moment! I'm finding it uncomfortable lying in bed, as can only sleep on my back. I fell directly on to my right shoulder, so can't sleep on that side. Even if I try to sleep on my left side, whereever I place my right arm it hurts. Any advise/tips would be greatly appreciated Sir! Kind regards, Chance, Norwich (UK)
Hello. I have broken my collar bone last week. Doctor has advised me to use sling. I have seen much improvement within 1 week. But I am concerned that the broken bones are not aligned properly. I feel the broken bones have moved over each other at the point where it broke. I wanted to know if there are some exercises to align them properly.
Hey I just broke my collar bone and I’m also worried because my bones weren’t aligned when they told me to put it in a sling. I’m just wondering how yours ended up healing and if it was a problem.
@@Dre-xr1gy Hey, it's been almost 4 months. My right collar bone was fractured. I have a visible bump where the bone was fractured. I do feel pain when I turn on my right side while lying on bed. I would advise you to get it checked in the early stage of healing.
Broke mine 4/09/22…closed displaced fracture of shaft of left clavicle was performed 4/14/22. Experienced hardware failure at 6 weeks and repeated surgery on 7/12/22. Starting having pain in left shoulder and went to Dr. on 3/15/23 and X-ray confirmed hardware had once again failed. I had surgery yesterday and 2 titanium plates were used. Super painful today even with Percocet. Any advice for this last go round is greatly appreciated.
Hi I'm a 23yr old man from Philippines recently I was in a motorcycle accident I broke my left clavicle or as the x-rays shows dislocated clavicle I'm on my 5th week of recovery together with the sling and 8 tapes how many weeks does it take to remove my sling and to rehab I hope you notice me thank you
Greetings, I have collar bone for almost 6 weeks, so I need to know wether it healed properly or not. Since the fracture till now I am using a sling. I don’t know how to make myself sure that’s healed properly. How to know? Without X-ray. Thanks
19 years old, broke my right collarbone and went in for an X-ray to see the 2 bones completely displaced. Required surgery a few days later. If your doctor recommends surgery and you can afford it, do it. It took all the pressure off the bone and feels a little better. Hurts a lot less than before surgery, but that could also be the stronger pain meds they gave me 😂 they told me about 6weeks-3 months until I was fully recovered and could bear weight on my arm again. A broken collarbone isn’t to big a deal, especially if surgery isn’t required, I know it sucks to be out of action for a while, but you’ll get better guys. Let me know if you have any questions or anxiety about the surgery. Happy to answer it all :)
hi! I just got a surgery, my collarbone practically identically broke like yours, if you don't mind i have a few questions. How long did it take to recover? And did you go to any rehab?have you gotten any unconfortable feeling after it recovered? Thanks!!
@@luisvlasman2762 hello! Hope this finds you well, I got surgery mid to late June and I was back to light gym workouts and everyday use by early to middle of September. It all depends on what your surgeon says but that is usually the time frame. I didn’t do much rehab, I didn’t move my arm for so long after surgery that I only went in for one session just so they could show me how to move it again if that makes sense. Once the rehab person showed me I had full mobility of the arm I was fine to use it after that. In terms of uncomfortable feelings, I find it difficult to wear heavy backpacks still, and I still get pain after a long day of work or being active, but backpacks hurt the worst. Other than that it’s just a waiting game until it feels better to you. It’s been 5 months now and I’m back being active and working out + going to work. Hope this helps!
Ive done the assisted shoulder flexion unintentionally after a week from my surgery. Also I started using less of my arm sling during that time. Bones are healing fine though after 3 weeks. Just have to continue the movement then. (Still no lifting of heavy objects)
Got bucked 3 days ago - broke clavicle , sprained elbow and wrist - topical ice /heat cream is a dream to help . Day three the wrist is thinner so I have more mobility .
My clavicle bone was fractured 4 months ago but it is not heel still now.My doctor suggested me not to go for surgery and he says that "it will feel itself don't worry".I can't understand how it will heels even after 4 months of clavicle fracture.im 30 yrs old
I just broke my left clavicle March 11th. I immediately iced and put on sling that I had from shoulder surgery. I received my figure eight splint yesterday, the 23rd of March. I'm just not sure how tight to have it. Any information on this would be helpful. Thank you.
Hi Awesome video. I just don't understand up to which part of the video I should be doing given my circumstances. Collarbone: shattered into many pieces (not a clean break) It's taking a long time for the bone to merge Surgery: Jan 17, 2024 . They put a titanium plate and multiple screws because multiple pieces April 20, 2024 (about 3 months after surgery) - The doctor is expressing concerns over the healing of the bone (We can see via the Xray that the bone is not merging and no callus is being formed around the bone) and ordered a CT scan. He's expressing concerns of the titanium plate breaking as well. With that being said, up to which point of the exercises shown in the video should I be doing? Should I be doing them all? Pain permitting? Or up to which exercise do you recommend? Thank you in advance :)
Hi! I broke my collar bone almost 12 years ago, I got surgery done fixed it and removed the screws. The only problme is that I was young and dumb and never went through physical therapy. Now im 32 and Iven been experiencing shoulder blade pain and soreness/nerve pain from time to time. Can I still rehab my shoulder?? thanks
So I fractured my collar bone about a week ago because when I was driving my bike I was shifting gears and the chain got stuck in the derailleur and the bike just stopped sending me flying to my side. And I am wondering if I will be able to go to gym in like a month or two because my doctor told me that I should wait about 12 weeks. Very disheartening for me but I will probably listen to my doctor's advice and stay out of gym for 3 months Here is a medical report: Findings and Evaluation On the images of the right clavicle, a fracture is visible from the midshaft to the distal third of the clavicle without significant displacement of fragments. On the images of the right wrist joint, there are no clear signs of recent bone trauma. On the cranial X-ray images, there are no definitive signs of acute bone trauma. Follow-up Fracture of the right clavicle. 10/3/2023. Tightening the Immobiliser, X-ray meets the criteria.
I broke my coller bone had a plate and screws put in I am out of my sling and can use my surgeon has cleared me. But I here a pop and click when I use my arm every now and then is this normal.
Just suffered fracture 2 days ago. Swelling increased day 2. Taking Percocet as needed for pain. Only one so far. Final say so on surgery necessity 5Jul22. 68 years wise.
I'm 13 and I went for surgery becuse the bone was split in half and was 1cm away and tillted at like a 45 degree angel. I am thinking of getting in to tug-of-war but I need to strethin my shoulder, (I fell from my bike on a turn with gravel) and it took about 2-4 weeks to heal to the piont where I feel no pain

How is your recovery?
yes@@Williamsdoc
Thank you for this.
I'm 73 and flipped my bike a month ago and broke my collarbone. The surgeon did not push surgery but left it as an option. My bone was broken at an oblique angle and the top part was on the bottom, and there was 1/4 inch of displacement. I went for the surgery and am so glad I did. Gave up the sling a few days ago and hoping to get back on the bike very soon! Did you have a full recovery?
Just like me, I fall off while riding, this is week three, am healing
Had a midshaft clavicle fracture 11/23/23. At 30 days took off the sling. At 40 days started using my arm again lifting lightly, stretching. At 45 days had xray and it appears I've healed poorly. It's now 52 days and I don't have great range of motion. Best advice I can give is to leave your sling on the full 6 weeks even if you're feeling better. I believe I started using my arm too soon.
without surgery theres always a 50% chance the bone wont heal in correct position limiting your range of motion... the sling and other tools are very poor in keeping your body fixed, you can just make a turn in your sleep and its fkd
how was your clavicle now after xray does it back to normal allignment ?
@jimyjamal7353 it's now 8 months later. My arm is not the same . I don't have nearly the same strength. the range of motion is back pretty much. I wish I had the surgery, I think.
@@SeanBob1985I understand completely. I broke mine and it is in a weird position and poking up. I think it might be a Nonunion. It was almost four months ago. I drummed on it after it broke and that wasn't a good idea. Have you done these exercises? I'm just now starting to do these and I think they are helping a bit everyday. If it doesn't get better within a month, I'll eventually probably get surgery if it still burns in the morning. I know how you feel. We might have to eventually get the surgery. I hope you regain some of that strength and full rotation.
@@falloutmirelurk4471 you should have take the surgery earlier or the doctor cant fix it after it builds up some your bones
Fractured my collarbone playing soccer… a week later it was healing well until I felt it pop and I couldn’t move… had to go to the er again and it was completely snapped the second time… had to get surgery because no meds could keep the pain down… the surgery saved me frlm weeks of traumatizing pain… if you are reading this and nothing eases the pain and you can barely walk I would consult an orthopedic surgeon and ask if surgery is the answer because it was for me. I now have a plate and 8 screws and am 2 weeks out of surgery with bassicly no pain anymore and out of the sling as well… I wish all of you guys the best and hope you heal fast… remeber take meds if it hurts don’t fight the pain it’s not worth it
I have got surgery with 8 screws and a plate. Now 5 weeks going on. Could you please suggest a piece of advice that helps me to rehab it. Thanks
@@monirulislammonir3150 videos on UA-cam and take matters into your own hands. The second I could walk again I started swinging my arm back and forth leaning on a chair. All you need is videos and discipline. Good luck
@@monirulislammonir3150 after 5 weeks I was pressing 70s again on incline press. It felt weird for a while and sore but I eased into it. Just make sure daily you are excising and stretching doing anything you can to recover.
Did you continue playing soccer after your surgery
@@monirulislammonir3150 start weight training. Eat alot of food. start buiulding up muscle all around your body. I started with PT excersises on youtube then went slowly into weights. Did 20 lb dumbells on incline press then the next week 25 then 30 then 40 50 60 70 80. Eventually you come back fully but take it slow.
You just got yourself a new subscriber. I've just recently returned from the hospital after a serious motorcycle accident where one of my injuries was a broken clavicle that required a contoured titanium plate surgery. As a result of my other injuries, I'm limited to the beginning stages of range of motion exercises at this time. However your video is one of the best I've come across for rehab as it applies to me. Thank you for sharing your skills and experience.
Same with me. Motorcycle accident. 1 week post surgery. Hope you healed up well.
Im 3 weeks into a fractured clavicle. My doctor gave me like a 2 min talk on how to have it in a sling and just taught me the pendulum exercise. I had to research everything online they gave me very little info on how to heal or recover.
did you have surgery? how long did it take for you to recover
@YahirSvt i did not have surgery because the displacement was not to far apart it was only a small gap in the break in reality my bone did not fully heal for a year but I had like 75 percent mobility in about 5 months. I was also not lifting heavy for about 8 months.
@@Jesus.Xdamn bro, seems like recovery time is allover the place for everyone. ive heard a month all the way to a year and some change. Im barely on week one lets see how it goes 🤞🏽
@@Jesus.Xalso how old were you if you dont mind me asking?
@@YahirSvt if you are older than 35 your recovery time will be slower bones,nerves and muscles heal slower past 35 when I was 16 my bones healed better.
About two and a half months ago I was practicing low speed motorcycle maneuvers when my engine quit and slammed me hard on the pavement on my left side. I was within my "golden hour" so when I got over my initial shock, I was able to pick up my 500 lb bike and ride it home.
The collar bone at the break started swelling almost immediately, but by not moving my left arm away from my body, I was able to control the pain. A day later, I went to the ER to be X-rayed and yes, I had broken the collar bone at a rather long, shallow angle and it was naturally in opposition. They gave me a sling, but to put it on was too painful, so I never used it. A week or so later I was able to get my clothes off an took my first shower. After two weeks, with a large lump where the break was, I was able to start using my left arm, but with some pain. I have many chores to do every day, so I had to work through the pain, trusting my body to know when to cut back. When it would hurt too much, I would stop, but continued to use the arm and shoulder as much as possible. To my satisfaction, I quickly regained nearly full motion within about three weeks, but with some pain. After about a month and a half, I had full motion and full use of my left arm even to the point of lifting heavy weights and all completely without pain as if the injury had never happened. I still have a large lump of what feels like hard bone where the fracture was.
By the way, I am a very short and active 77 year old guy who has taken Vitamin K3 and D2 supplements for quite some time before this injury. I have taken some rather bad falls from horses and motorcycles mostly without injury and always considered myself as having "strong bones."
Thank you! ...GOD BLESS YOU YOUNG MAN
My clavicle bone got fractured Feb. 28th 2024, and had surgery 03.22.2024. Recovery opt going into 5 weeks. My arm hurts, its numb and swollen around the upper area. I'm taking it slow and doing the exercises the Dr. team advised me to. Physical Therapy starts soon. This video is super helpful! Thank you, and for those thats scared or going through it, be calm and listen to classical or instrumental smooth music, it helps.💙
U oka now ? I had mine broken 3 days back and doc said no surgery needed wait 4/6 weeks to heal it up
OK - This vid works. No BS sideshows. Just stretch & strength instructions. Dude gets it. Six days removed from a collarbone fracture & I'm ready to knock this out & going to hit replay for a while.
Thanks for your support!
@@PhysioFood OK, not much of an update. But I'm recovered??? Doc said it was a option to plate it up ( full fracture w/displacement). What,really? Said, I'd be fine without surgery. I guess he was right. Did the exercises, tempered my expectations but I'm back running, carrying a backpack, generic lifting functions. Lotsa clicking going on in the region. Never went back for a follow up x-ray. Maybe I don't want to know!?!?
Does there is bump?
@@smeetpatel4303 small bump/indentation. But still holds. rarely think about it now. The human body healing powers is pretty amazing
i broke my collar bone 5 days ago and this really helped me with the small exercises and reliving some mobility into my arm, but on a side note your arms are huge bro you dentally go to the gym and it shows those are some shotgun arms bro good work.
Very helpful. Broke mine at 13. 21 now and this is helping problems I never could put my finger on
I'm having it right now and thanx to your video for preventing me form surgery
Did u get surg
when i broke my collar bone, I couldn't even sit up in bed by myself the first week. I was so grateful for my daughter coming over to stay with me the first few days. Remember to ask for help, its always debilitating to break any bone!
I broke my collar bone August 25,22 and got surgery today September 13,22 ,And im just tryna hear other people story's i wish i could post a picture my bone was broken in two one side of my bone was almost poking through my neck & the other side seem so far apart i was petrified when the orthopedic showed me the x-ray & said surgery was the only way ,But giving all my thanks too the most high i made it & the hard part is over ,I think this is a helpful video after i go to my follow up in two weeks ima see if i could started taking your tips very helpful thank you .
Thanks, you helped a few people in Australia. Good fella. Good style and excellent explanation. Proud of your work.
Imma subscribe to this dude. This guy just made recovery pain free
THANKYOU!! you just made my day❤❤
Thanks for your kind words!
Everyone is different. I just suffered a serious fracture of my collarbone. My advice is to only rely on the sling or brace for the first couple weeks. After that let your arm dangle to start re-building strength and flexibility. If it starts to ache rest it by sitting down and resting your arm on a arm rest. You will start to notice more mobility as it strengthens. I only wear a brace when I sleep. After a few weeks I still had slight aching pains in my shoulder, but had mobility. I was able to kayak 4 miles in Key Largo with minimal discomfort. I guess the paddling motion of kayaking is perfect for a healing collar-bone. No one would have known had I not told them it was broken. They were surprised when I did. Heck, I was surprised. This was not a minor fracture. After six weeks was able to do 5 pull ups and 5 chin-ups. Push up's were a little harder, but I was still able to do 5 as well. I can usually do about 35-50. And that's currently where I'm at on my journey. I am 56 and wise enough to know to give it 4-6 month's, no matter how strong it feels, before I attempt anymore stunt's or any situations that would cause me to fall and re-break it. I also take D3 for bone health, seems to be working. And of course exercise. Most my friends said that people in their 50's don't heal like young people? I'm out to prove them wrong, buy stressing the fact that fitness play's a major role in the aging process.
Prove them wrong!!!! 💪💪💪
I took my sling off day 3 and 4 (broken collarbone and scapular 8screws and a plate later) thinking I was recovering fast come to find out I was so swollen that I couldn't feel the pain day 5 and 6 reminded me of how much pain I was in lol started wearing my sling after that 😂
Fractured my collarbone playing football, I'm 27 years old and very active, about 9 weeks in now, I've wore a sling for 6 weeks and only started getting full range of motion back after about 7-8 weeks... currently working on strengthening again now as any physical activity causes aching In the arm! Hope you recover fast if you're going through it as well! Can't wait to get back to all my hobbies 👍
Hey same as me bro but im 13
Did you heal without surgery??

Tomorrow will be 3 months since I got in a bad wreck and broke/displaced my collar bone and I have a pinched nerve in my neck on the same side and in my lower back. Had to wait 35 days to have surgery to plate the bone with 6 screws put it in. Mine broke about 3/4 of a inch from the end where it meets my shoulder Right above the AC cup. It was very painful worst pain I've ever experienced but now I'm 7.5 weeks from when I had surgery and it still has its days when it hurts an is very tight. But I've been doing physical therapy for the pass 3.5 weeks and it's made a big difference. P.S. the exercises that are shown in this are the same exercises they've showed me in therapy.
Thanks for sharing your experience. Sending positive healing vibes your way! 🙌🙌🙌
i have a fractured clavicle and for the first few weeks i can't move arms, even just a little movement hurts a lot. But everyday I feel a lot better, I can use my injured arm now to grab things but there are several angle that still hurts. I am on my 8 weeks of recovery, just keep on praying and surely our injuries will be back to normal
Hi Ur okay now??

how are you now? did you do surgery? how bad was your break?
@@thetricky5569 my left clavicle splits and it was totally broken, the doctor didn’t advice me to do a surgery and told me to just not move it. And after 2 months I am fully recovered as if there’s no injury happened
Just fractured mine two breaks in bone it was in line. A week later, it shifted and drooped bone became out of line looking like a z pattern was hurting badly. I decided to get surgery with plate and screws much better now. I think surgery is the way to go once the bone is out of line.
Can u please please do a video about explaining how to heal a fractured fibula (which hasn't shifted) fast as possible what calcium foods do I need, and how and when would I return to football (as a striker position) I'm wearing a boot instead of a cast just so u know. And exercises for how to really strengthen my ankles and bones it would be really helpful and appreciated if u can do a video on this thank you.🙏🏽
How soon can I start with these exercises? I’m on 6 going to my 7th week from my accident.
Thank you for the information. It’s very helpful.
Very good video. I'm wondering how soon the exercises can be implemented. It will be helpful to see which ones are the ones I could do at the beginning, 4weeks, 6 weeks and so forth. Thanks for putting this information out there.
Bicycle vs Car 10 days ago. Surgery 2 days ago. My doc said to start exercising it after the nerve block wears off. Today is rehab day 1. Thanks!

Dear PTA sir, Thank you very much for your video on Rehab collar bone fracture. Really it is very useful. But I am having small doubt that, when should these exercises after the injury took place. Say for example, after one week from the date of injury, do Wrist extensor, after two weeks wrist flexion, etc. like this please list out the time and exercise name. It will be very useful for doing the exercise in sequence after injury.

So much depends on severity of break , broke my collarbone clean break no displacement and was able to start exercising very lightly within days , 4 weeks in now and very little pain and can work manually again … but physio is so important
Pumped seeing the in-depth detail of all the exercises in this video so thank you, even though I wasn't able to do most with a broken hand bravo on this video. very detailed and helpful.

Thanks for your video. I am 48-year-old man, and I have broken my clavicle 6 weeks ago while I was performing Parallel Bar Dip exercises, and I wonder why? just by doing a parallel exercise my left-hand clavicle broke! for 5 weeks I used shoulder sling. Now I want to go back to gym, but I don't know when!
Collar bone mid fracture and dislocated AC joint.
( Broke opposing wrist also😅)
I refused surgery on both.
Went home, immobilized for 2 or 3 weeks. Then used figure of 8 brace for AC joint.
Exercised both every day.
@kitwake buddy you're okay now?
I broke my shoulder last week and I'm currently recovering at the moment. It swells a lot. Hope this helps.
My collarbone was broken in a car accident 33 years ago. As I get older (I'm 52), it aches and I haven't found anyway to relieve it. My collarbone healed so that there's a lump. It aches underneath the "bump". It's getting more painful with age. I will try this! Thank you!
Update: It doesn't ache anymore. I just had to let it get used to my workouts. 😊
Nice and concise presentation ❤
On January 3, 23 I slipped and fall on a rainy night. It broke by collar bone at my shoulder and dislocated it at my sternum. The collar bone was driven across my sternum for about 7 inches. As I recovered from the fall, it fell back into play at my sternum. It left a swelling across my sternum. Now I have a swelling across my sternum nearly touching my throat. What can I do to reduce the swelling?
Hi, thanks for the Video , my daughter had a nasty fall playing football & I'm pretty sure she has broken it. X-ray tomorrow .thanks for the info from Ireland. I will have be patient with her recovery as she's a teenager 😮.
Thanks buddy. Just what I needed.
Just broke mine on Tuesday ebike wipeout to sidewalk. It’s Thursday now and I’m seeing bone specialist on this coming Wed to see if surgery is needed based on the break position on the bone
It’s been sore but nights are very difficult to get through
When should you start doing physio after the fracture
I’m 18 clean snapped my left clavicle had to have 2 plates 6 screws in about 7 weeks ago been out of a sling for about 3 weeks and was told don’t need rehab doctor says about a month and I’ll be fully cleared
Great information, thanks for the stretching and exercise demos!

Hi lovely, I'm 38yrs old woman and I've broke my collar bone. 3weeks in and I'm still in loads of pain. I just got back from my first check up app and the DR actually turned around and said that I don't need paink!llers anymore and I don't need my sling indoors anymore even tho I can't even put my arm down without screaming in pain, so any additional advice would be amazing plz!!! x💙x
How soon can we start all these rehab? A few weeks after the fracture? During Initial phase. We should just leave it in the sling right?
I’m 14 and snapped it half and they were overlapping like an x and I had to get surgery, it’s been about a week now but things are getting better fast, still can’t lift my arm up can only lift it about 1/4 of the way up
Great video! It's been one week since I broke my collarbone. no surgery required. When should I start doing these? I am a teenager. thanks!
Just broke my collar bone last week, again (about 10 years ago). Just walking and car ride are terrible, the are gets irritated. The worst pain is in my back by Scapula. Taking my sling off a lot and working the hand as you said, feel the pain stop.

Awesome video. Great tips. Thank you so so much.
i broke my right collar bone roughly 12 years ago, front wheel cased the landing on my bike and slammed into the landing ramp collar bone first.. hardly felt anything at all. Tried to start riding again and i could hear a clicking noise and felt a bit light headed; clean break in the middle took 5 weeks to recover and have no issues whatsoever. 2 weeks ago i broke my left, full force dumped by a double wave surfing at the beach and this one was intense.. very painful, broken at the end near shoulder. Needed surgery and a plate put in, hell of a lot worse and uncomfortable.. going to require a bit more time with recovery i would imagine.
I have my collar bone fractured due to motorcycle accident last October 25 2023 . What are the things that i need to do in order to heal and back it in normal lining? Thank you 🙏
Hi after surgery of collarbone how long will be recovery time. As doctor says at least 6 to 8 week it may take thanks for video will start doing few gentle exercises.
Fantastic video , I’m 6 days pre op , all ready getting good range of motion , does this video still apply even when the collar bone has been plated ? I’m out of my sling most of the day as I find it more annoying and painful to be in it , eagerly waiting your reply as I’m wanting to rehabs best I can , thanks for the great video
Hi, I have a suspected clavicle fracture following a fall, just under three weeks ago. My Doctor says I don't don't need a sling/support, so not sure whether this was good advice or not? He said the only way to know for sure, how bad the fracture is, is for me to visit the hospital emergency dept, but advised against it, as I could be sitting in there for hours, due to our NHS being under such pressure at the moment! I'm finding it uncomfortable lying in bed, as can only sleep on my back. I fell directly on to my right shoulder, so can't sleep on that side. Even if I try to sleep on my left side, whereever I place my right arm it hurts. Any advise/tips would be greatly appreciated Sir!
Kind regards, Chance, Norwich (UK)
Hello. I have broken my collar bone last week. Doctor has advised me to use sling. I have seen much improvement within 1 week. But I am concerned that the broken bones are not aligned properly. I feel the broken bones have moved over each other at the point where it broke. I wanted to know if there are some exercises to align them properly.
Hey I just broke my collar bone and I’m also worried because my bones weren’t aligned when they told me to put it in a sling. I’m just wondering how yours ended up healing and if it was a problem.
@@Dre-xr1gy Hey, it's been almost 4 months. My right collar bone was fractured. I have a visible bump where the bone was fractured. I do feel pain when I turn on my right side while lying on bed. I would advise you to get it checked in the early stage of healing.
Broke mine 4/09/22…closed displaced fracture of shaft of left clavicle was performed 4/14/22. Experienced hardware failure at 6 weeks and repeated surgery on 7/12/22. Starting having pain in left shoulder and went to Dr. on 3/15/23 and X-ray confirmed hardware had once again failed. I had surgery yesterday and 2 titanium plates were used. Super painful today even with Percocet. Any advice for this last go round is greatly appreciated.
Hi I'm a 23yr old man from Philippines recently I was in a motorcycle accident I broke my left clavicle or as the x-rays shows dislocated clavicle I'm on my 5th week of recovery together with the sling and 8 tapes how many weeks does it take to remove my sling and to rehab I hope you notice me thank you
Greetings,
I have collar bone for almost 6 weeks, so I need to know wether it healed properly or not. Since the fracture till now I am using a sling. I don’t know how to make myself sure that’s healed properly. How to know? Without X-ray.
Thanks
19 years old, broke my right collarbone and went in for an X-ray to see the 2 bones completely displaced. Required surgery a few days later. If your doctor recommends surgery and you can afford it, do it. It took all the pressure off the bone and feels a little better. Hurts a lot less than before surgery, but that could also be the stronger pain meds they gave me 😂 they told me about 6weeks-3 months until I was fully recovered and could bear weight on my arm again. A broken collarbone isn’t to big a deal, especially if surgery isn’t required, I know it sucks to be out of action for a while, but you’ll get better guys. Let me know if you have any questions or anxiety about the surgery. Happy to answer it all :)
hi! I just got a surgery, my collarbone practically identically broke like yours, if you don't mind i have a few questions. How long did it take to recover? And did you go to any rehab?have you gotten any unconfortable feeling after it recovered?
Thanks!!
@@luisvlasman2762 hello! Hope this finds you well, I got surgery mid to late June and I was back to light gym workouts and everyday use by early to middle of September. It all depends on what your surgeon says but that is usually the time frame. I didn’t do much rehab, I didn’t move my arm for so long after surgery that I only went in for one session just so they could show me how to move it again if that makes sense. Once the rehab person showed me I had full mobility of the arm I was fine to use it after that. In terms of uncomfortable feelings, I find it difficult to wear heavy backpacks still, and I still get pain after a long day of work or being active, but backpacks hurt the worst. Other than that it’s just a waiting game until it feels better to you. It’s been 5 months now and I’m back being active and working out + going to work. Hope this helps!
@@luisvlasman2762 how are you now?
broke my collarbone 1 and a half month ago ans im alr back to the gym, slow and steady but im working my way up
Why shoulder visiuals appear shorter than the other side😢..did it be that same again??
Ive done the assisted shoulder flexion unintentionally after a week from my surgery. Also I started using less of my arm sling during that time. Bones are healing fine though after 3 weeks. Just have to continue the movement then. (Still no lifting of heavy objects)

I had my collar bone break 1 month ago but it is not getting healed , what should I do
Hi Awesome video. I just don't understand up to which part of the video I should be doing given my circumstances.
Collarbone: shattered into many pieces (not a clean break) It's taking a long time for the bone to merge
Surgery: Jan 17, 2024 . They put a titanium plate and multiple screws because multiple pieces
April 20, 2024 (about 3 months after surgery) - The doctor is expressing concerns over the healing of the bone (We can see via the Xray that the bone is not merging and no callus is being formed around the bone) and ordered a CT scan. He's expressing concerns of the titanium plate breaking as well.
With that being said, up to which point of the exercises shown in the video should I be doing? Should I be doing them all? Pain permitting? Or up to which exercise do you recommend?
Thank you in advance :)
When to start exercise after the accident hppened?
Excellent way of teaching 👌👍🏻
Hi! I broke my collar bone almost 12 years ago, I got surgery done fixed it and removed the screws. The only problme is that I was young and dumb and never went through physical therapy. Now im 32 and Iven been experiencing shoulder blade pain and soreness/nerve pain from time to time. Can I still rehab my shoulder?? thanks
So I fractured my collar bone about a week ago because when I was driving my bike I was shifting gears and the chain got stuck in the derailleur and the bike just stopped sending me flying to my side. And I am wondering if I will be able to go to gym in like a month or two because my doctor told me that I should wait about 12 weeks. Very disheartening for me but I will probably listen to my doctor's advice and stay out of gym for 3 months
Here is a medical report:
Findings and Evaluation
On the images of the right clavicle, a fracture is visible from the midshaft to the distal third of the clavicle without significant displacement of fragments.
On the images of the right wrist joint, there are no clear signs of recent bone trauma.
On the cranial X-ray images, there are no definitive signs of acute bone trauma.
Follow-up
Fracture of the right clavicle. 10/3/2023.
Tightening the Immobiliser, X-ray meets the criteria.

Help me sir I broke my clavicle bone yesterday can I use your treatment recovery or operation?
I have an impingement in my shoulder after a year. The pain starts in the shoulder and radiates to the bicep when I get past horizontal.
Just suffered fracture 2 days ago. Swelling increased day 2. Taking Percocet as needed for pain. Only one so far. Final say so on surgery necessity 5Jul22. 68 years wise.

I'm 13 and I went for surgery becuse the bone was split in half and was 1cm away and tillted at like a 45 degree angel. I am thinking of getting in to tug-of-war but I need to strethin my shoulder, (I fell from my bike on a turn with gravel) and it took about 2-4 weeks to heal to the piont where I feel no pain
this helped me greatly, thanks!
I just broke my collar bone,i dont know why but my neck hurts whenever i try to rotate
Good exercises!
