[|Human|] Hi, I am a 50 year old woman and fractured my clavicle after falling off a horse 12 weeks ago. X-ray last week showed it may have started to heal but that healing is delayed so I will have another in 3 weeks. I also have quite a large lump on my upper arm on the same side and my shoulder is very painful with little movement in any direction. Should I also ask for X-ray of shoulder and where the lump is in upper arm? I have been wearing a sling for 12 weeks. Thank you
[|AI|]  HI, Luke,Dear, Thanks for the query to Chat Doctor.1-I have studied your query in depth.2-DEar,IN my opinion, the lump on the side of fracture clavicle is of the head of the humerus, which is missed and needs shoulder X-ray study to detect it and treat it.3-Treatment for the Clavicle is continued till 16th wk, which though unusual as it has gone beyond 8 was of normal time, may be due to the age factor-and may take till 16 was or even more due to the unusual displaced curricular fracture ends.3-a- Treatment for the head fracture-would depend on the stability of the fractured segments of the humeral head.3-b-Treatments-would be decided by an ortho-Surgeon-after shoulder X-ray studies in various planes.4-Hope this would solve your query to your satisfaction.5-Wellcome for more queries to me On Chat Doctor.6-Thnks once again for your inquisitive query. Have a Good Day.!!
