I broke my clavicle in a bike race 6 moths ago. My left collar bone was broken into four pieces. Once the figure 8 was on, my collar came out to length pretty well so no surgery. I went through pt and even returned to race after about 3.5 months. I don't have all the strength that I had before but I'm maybe 80% or a little more. I just keep catching myself rubbing my shoulder due to what seems to be a burning pain accutely from an area on the front tip of my shoulder. Sometimes the sensation gets quite sharp. I can deal with the pain but don't know if I should.
