I'm so sorry to hear that your clavicle is re-injured. I'm sending you many healing wishes that this time around it will quickly and completely heal.

My 7 y.o. son broke his last spring falling out of bed and it definitely was not fun. He had to have his arm in a sling for six weeks to let his clavicle heal. After a couple of weeks the pain subsided, so it was very difficult for him to remember that he wasn't to move his arm else his clavicle wouldn't have a chance of healing properly. It took many motherly reminders and just plain nagging (and a few threats with taping his arm to his side! ) to keep him from moving it too much. I received many a harry eyeballs during that time but we survived through it.

The day we let him take off his sling, he hooped and hollered, then jumped on his bike and rode around as fast as he could. It was very difficult to get him to go inside that day.
