Well like the title says I just broke my clavicle in three places on Monday. I went to the hospital and all they did was give me a prescription for meds and a sling. We;; the oxycodone has been making me sick as hell so I quit takimg it, and pain wise im not hurting too bad at the moment. I was told at the hospital that i could either get surgery or let it heal on its iwn, and they referred me ti a bone doctor. Ive gotta call and se what the other doc thinks, but i think im gonna let it heal on its own. I rea;;y dont care if it heals kinda deformed, i just despise surgery. What do yall think i should do?

also sorry for the spelling errors, etc im only able to type with one hand

i say let it heal on its own... my wife broke her clavical about 6 months back, and cant even tell anymore. hasnt complained about it in about 4ish months. i say the surgery is overrated for that, and if they gave you a strap that goes around both arms and smaps or some bs... that **** doesnt work, get a arm sling... just try to keep your arm close to your body. just my .02
