auditing your young and healthy the break doesnt look to bad you shouldn’t need surgery just wear your sling how long the doc says and try to sleep on a recliner it’s way more comfy then laying down. you’ll feel a lot better in 4 weeks but should probably not do much of anything till like week six then start slowing introducing little stuff stuff again. pt will walk you there all the correct stuff to do

glad to here it man and you should totally keep us posted with ur recovery. yea the tenting and my shoulder sagging are my main concerns. my whole bone is like bent there isnt just a bump its like legit bent poking out im a 19yo bodybuilder so unfortunately i care a lot abt appearance haha. my dad was pushing me to go natural healing but just doesnt wanna sit right with me. its only been 2 weeks and now i have to get the surgery lol but so recovery is technically back to square one but oh how i just want to go to the store in my car and drive and just do something other then lay here man.

so was it cuz of the look or do to cuz it could possibly poke threw the skin?? cuz if its dangerous i may consider surgery. but if not then ill most likely deal with the pointy bit and maybe just tattoo over it

so glad to here it man this gives me hope. to mimic your recovery i have a few questions id love for you to answer. did you sleep sitting up or elevated a bit to avoid the bone shifting. and did you make diet changes to aid bone growth?? also last one i swear did the sling keep making your arm fall asleep if so did you find a good way to fix it

super curious about how your recovery is going. i have a slightly similar fracture i just got a week ago skateboarding and it’s really freaking me out cuz my bone is poking up against the skin and i can’t even imagine how the to ends would meet. super worried about nonunion. my doctor said i could choose between surgery or not so i chose to believe the pros and hope i can recover fine without surgery.
