So imagine my surprise when I went in for my six week X-ray today, only to find that the break is actually worse now than it was six weeks ago! Go ahead and imagine that twig snapping all the way in half.

So THAT'S Why My Shoulder Hurts So Bad!
As you may know, I crashed during a bike race a few weeks ago and broke my right clavicle and a rib about halfway up my back. The X-rays taken immediately after the crash showed a cracked looking collarbone that nevertheless appeared to be all connected. I've been telling people for weeks to imagine bending a twig just until it snaps, NOT until in completely breaks in two.

My jaw just dropped! I can't believe it. And the twig analogy is just a bit too rough for me to stomach...

OUCH!!! I'm no orthopod but I think that healing is problematic when the two ends don't even both to touch.
