What is Shoulder Fracture Treatment?
Shoulder fracture treatment involves surgical or non-surgical methods to repair a break in one or more of the bones that make up the shoulder joint, including the clavicle (collarbone), scapula (shoulder blade), or humerus (upper arm bone). Fractures can result from falls, accidents, or high-impact trauma. Treatment aims to restore shoulder function, reduce pain, and prevent complications.
Shoulder Fracture Treatment
Types of Shoulder Fractures Treated
Clavicle Fracture: A break in the collarbone, often caused by falls or direct blows.
Proximal Humerus Fracture: A fracture in the upper part of the arm bone, near the shoulder joint.
Scapula Fracture: A rare fracture of the shoulder blade, typically caused by high-impact trauma.

Benefits of Shoulder FractureTreatment
Pain Relief: Helps alleviate pain caused by the fracture, improving comfort.
Restores Function: Surgical or non-surgical intervention allows for the restoration of shoulder movement and function.
Prevents Complications: Prompt treatment reduces the risk of complications like joint stiffness, improper healing, or further injury.
Customized Approach: Treatment is tailored to the patient’s needs, considering age, health, and type of fracture.

Recovery Expectations
Hospital Stay: Typically 1-3 days, depending on the type of fracture and the treatment performed.
Initial Mobility: Gentle shoulder movements begin soon after treatment, with the use of a sling for support.
Physical Therapy: Essential for regaining strength, improving mobility, and reducing stiffness in the shoulder joint.
Full Recovery: Generally takes 3-6 months, with continued improvement in strength and mobility over time.

Treatment options include non-surgical methods, such as immobilization with a sling, or surgical repair with plates, screws, or other devices.
Individuals at higher risk include those involved in high-impact activities, older adults, and people with osteoporosis or weakened bones.
Recovery usually takes 3-6 months, with physical therapy playing a crucial role in regaining mobility and strength.
Untreated fractures can lead to complications such as improper bone healing, joint stiffness, chronic pain, and loss of shoulder function.
