Article Synopsis
- Clavicle fractures are common shoulder injuries, often resulting from falls or sports accidents, with distinct demographic patterns: mainly affecting young males and women over 65.
- Proper diagnosis involves a clinical exam and imaging, which helps choose the right treatment approach, either conservative or surgical, depending on the patient's age and needs.
- Regardless of treatment type, early functional exercises are crucial for recovery and improving outcomes in both surgical and conservative therapies.
