Message: [QUOTE="mark_england, post: 336745, member: 28811"] jimyz u the figure of 8 brace holds the clavical back and prents it from bowing as it heals, if u dont wear one the bone will heal and be strong but it will throw the muscular skelital relationship out of sync the result will be you shoulder will ache pretty much all the time. although you will be able to ignore it now and then it gets to be a bit of a pain [pun intended] in the UK the orthopaedic surgeons rarely use them,,,, why should they? the bone heals fine,,,, and 2 or 3 years later they have no idea how ur shoulder feels [/QUOTE]
