This is one of the best ways to treat a broken clavicle in infants, toddlers, children and youths. The padded clavicle splint straps wrap around the shoulders, holding them in a rolled back position that immobilizes the collarbone area. The clavicle protector also supports the shoulders. Unlike a child-size arm sling for a broken collarbone, a figure-eight brace immobilizes both shoulders and leaves the arms free. A collarbone fracture is a common injury among children. This long, thin bone across the top of the chest that connects the shoulder blade to the breastbone does not fully harden until we are around 20 years old. A fall onto an extended arm or shoulder is often to blame for these breaks. For infants, birth itself can fracture the collarbone. Symptoms of a clavicle fracture include: pain that worsens with shoulder movement - inability to move the shoulder - a grinding/crackling sound with shoulder movement - a bulge or bump on or near the shoulder - swelling, bruising and / or stiffness. An infant with a fractured clavicle may not move the arm for a few days after birth. In most cases, surgery is not needed to treat a collarbone break. Non-surgical treatment will involve resting, protecting and supporting the shoulders by wearing a figure-8 brace. The 2" wide padded straps hold back the shoulders, keeping the collarbone area still and preventing more damage from occurring. The broken clavicle sling also supports the sore shoulders and gives healing a chance to occur. To heal a fractured clavicle, your child should wear this brace as directed by your doctor, but will likely need to wear it for several weeks. This brace is latex-free and comes in a neutral white & beige color. Sizes for infants, children and youth. Measure chest circumference below the sternum: XXS fits 14"-20", XS fits 20"-24", and S fits 24" - 32".
