Fractures Around the Shoulder

Expert Treatment for Shoulder Fractures – Regain Strength & Mobility

What Are Shoulder Fractures?

A shoulder fracture refers to a break in any of the three major bones that form the shoulder joint:
✔ Clavicle (Collarbone) – Runs across the top of the chest.
✔ Scapula (Shoulder Blade) – Connects the collarbone to the upper arm.
✔ Humerus (Upper Arm Bone) – Attaches to the shoulder joint.

These fractures are usually caused by falls, sports injuries, or high-impact accidents and can significantly affect shoulder movement and strength.

💡 Early diagnosis and the right treatment are crucial for full recovery.

Causes of Shoulder Fractures

  • Falls on an Outstretched Hand or Shoulder
  • Direct Trauma from Accidents or Sports Injuries
  • Osteoporosis & Weak Bones
  • Severe Twisting or Forceful Impact
