Dr. Edward Hellman answered

Specializes in Orthopedic Surgery

Be seen: There can be multiple reasons a person might "still" have problems 2 years after a clavicle fracture. It can be a failure of the fracture to heal, it can be from injuries to adjacent structures. Consider seeing a specialist to discuss the specific diagnosis and treatment options.
