Clavicle - Its a Wrap
Feels like it is finally time to put this one to sleep, but I thought I'd do one last update on the clavicle and how the healing process is going. This is how things look 2.5 weeks past surgery:
Overall, I'd say that things feel great and I am happy with my choice to have surgery rather than take the "wait and see" approach on this one. I still feel a bit of restriction in the shoulder joint from the lack of use all those months, but it is minor. I am back to doing all of my regular activities with no pain including Kettlebells and Yoga today. It feels good to be Back.
I've gotten a few common questions along the way, and this being my third clavicle fracture, maybe I'll write some sort of article about clavicle fractures...especially since this injury is so common for cyclists. Maybe a practical guidebook titled, "So you've broken your clavicle, Now What". There are a lot of different potential clinical scenarios, but there are a few big decisions to make early on regardless of what is going on. So, maybe a few tidbits to help answer those questions.
But for now, its a wrap and glad this one is behind me!!!!
