What are Shoulder Fractures?

Shoulder fractures involve broken bones in the clavicle (collarbone), scapula (shoulder blade), or proximal humerus (upper arm bone). Depending on the type and severity, treatment may involve immobilization with a sling, minimally invasive fixation, or open surgery. Proper treatment helps restore bone integrity, shoulder stability, and full range of motion.

Benefits of Shoulder Fracture Treatment

Treatment of shoulder fractures offers several benefits, including:

  • Restores proper alignment and stability of the fractured bone.
  • Reduces pain and swelling, allowing for early functional recovery.
  • Minimally invasive and surgical options minimize tissue damage and improve healing.
  • Restores shoulder mobility and strength for daily activities and sports.
  • Promotes long-term joint health and reduces the risk of deformity or arthritis.

Recovery and Outcomes

  • Early recovery involves immobilization with a sling or brace and pain management.
  • Physiotherapy and strengthening exercises help regain shoulder range of motion and strength.
  • Patients typically regain basic shoulder function within 6–8 weeks depending on fracture severity.
  • Full return to sports or heavy activities is usually achieved within 3–6 months.
  • Successful treatment ensures proper bone healing, shoulder stability, and long-term joint health.
