A member asked:
I am a 23year old female and met with an accident recently due to which i fractured my left collar bone. what precautions do i need to take ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably none.: A fractured collar bone will heal on its own. Probably best to have a doctor evaluate it. But, it normally doesn't cause any problems. No special precautions to recommend.
