Clavicle fracture: 99% of the time, it heals naturally without surgery. You need to wear a clavicle brace and arm pouch for 6 weeks or until the pain reduces, whichever is shorter. You should also take calcium and vitamin D supplements and eat a good diet. Take less pain medication..Check thyroid status..
