Yeah, I think the time they give is a projection of solid union, so it's really up to the patient's pain tolerance and willingness to risk re-injury. Motorcycle racers are back competing sometimes the day after surgery, and almost always before the incision closes.
Hope the surgery goes very smoothly.

This is the first I've seen this, so sorry to read this happened! I've had life-long repercussions from a broken clavicle that wasn't treated properly when I was 13, so glad to hear that he opted for the surgery. Thankfully they are MUCH better at this sort of thing now than they were in 1973 :-)

Surgery went well and the bone is completely back where it should be. We should be out of the hospital soon.
