A member asked:
My friend punched in the collarbone during karate sparrings and it's hurting x-rays required or not?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Clavicle injury: An xray is a great starting point to determine whether or not there is a fracture (break) of the bone. Additionally, a physical exam by an Orthopaedic surgeon will prove valuable to check for sprains of the joints surrounding the collar bone.
