[QUOTE="Mike Hubert, post: 218735, member: 22855"] I broke a collar bone 2 years ago and have the same big lump you described. I went to the doctor and they gave me a sling and one of the braces and told me to wear them if they helped, they didn't. The injury healed fine all by it's self but I will have the big lump the rest of my life. I broke the other collar bone last year and it kind of crosses at the end and joined side to side instead of end to end, like the other healed fine by it's self. My orthopedic surgeon said collar bones will heal fine unattended about 95% of the time, he said surgery actually reduces the healing rate to about 85%. Surgery messes up some many muscles and blood vessles that if cosmetically if it doesn't bother you, it will heal better on it's own. I would still recommend a trip to the doctor to be sure everything is healing well but avoid surgery and don't bother with the sling and brace. [/QUOTE]
