A member asked:
Does collarbone grow stronger as you get older?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: As we get older our bones tend to demineralize and become weaker. The best way to compensate for this age related change is exercise, healthy intake of calcium and vitamin d as well as appropriate estrogen and testosterone replacment when not contraindicated.
