So the docs told me! My town has a local horse race course, where
they jump over fences, and so the hospital is very used to treating
jockeys with broken clavicles. Apparently, some have broken them so
many times they've had them removed!

This assessment is based on your detailed medical expertise, yes?

Treatment for bone spurs in the shoulder is - you guessed
it! - remove 2" off the end of the clavicle. Shoulder seems to work
just fine.


Go fast. Take chances.

Healing time for a tib & fib fracture is 6 - 8 weeks. Rossi is still
walking on crutches and it looks very painful. My experience of wound
healing is that if it is still painful it ain't back to strength.
