Clavicle Error - Broken Collarbone

I wanted to ask, especially of Buddah Fingaz cos his fracture was distal as well, what sort of pain you had with your clavicles?

The actual break site itself has virtually no pain at all, but the middle of my back between the shoulder blades is tense as all hell, and I get a lot of pain just under the shoulder blades in the middle of my back. I wonder if this is anything to do with the break or a different injury.

I was about to put my Rapha softshell in the wash when I noticed that it had a hole in the elbow. So that's what I landed on to break my fucking shoulder! I had no idea. No pain to my elbow, no injury, grazes or anything.

Hello! Sorry I didn't see this earlier, feel free to PM me too.

What kind of support are you wearing (if any)? If its one of those figure of eight harnesses this is known to cause pain in the back due to the strain it places on the muscles keeping everything upright. It may be that if you're wearing a sling it's putting a lot of strain on the muscles in your neck and back too. I wore a sling and I certainly remember a lot of general aches and pains (especially during and after sleep), but don't recall a specific pain in the middle of my back.

You have probably been advised of this already but distal fractures are the most difficult to heal - so keeping the arm immobile in a sling as much as possible, together with good diet etc etc, is quite important. I also took things like extra calcium, but its debatable whether that's really necessary.
