  The clavicle, also known as the “collarbone,” is a thin bone that attaches the shoulder to the sternum (breastbone). A broken collarbone usually happens when a child falls directly onto the shoulder. […] A child with a clavicle fracture usually has pain, swelling, and possibly bruising directly over the clavicle, usually midway between the neck and the shoulder. Most likely, they will initially support the elbow with the opposite hand as allowing the arm to hang at the side is usually painful. They will probably not want to use or move the arm that is injured. In most cases, X-rays confirm the diagnosis. Occasionally, a very subtle fracture cannot be seen on X-ray, and your physician can make the diagnosis through their exam. […] Clavicle fractures in children usually heal in 6 to 12 weeks. Children should have no problems returning to sports or other physical activities after the fracture is healed. Clavicle fractures usually heal with a significant amount of callous (new bone that surrounds the fracture as it heals). Because the clavicle is directly under the skin and because of the new bone that the body creates to heal the fracture, the child will have a “bump” at the fracture site. In younger children, the bump will usually go away over time. In adolescents, the “bump” may improve but will likely remain. Children are unlikely to have any functional problems following a healed clavicle fracture.
