How To Treat Pain And Swelling In The Shoulder Caused After A Broken Clavicle?

I cracked my clavicle and seperated my a.c.... now that it s been a couple of days I can feel what actually hurts and where, but i have noticed that I feel a burning feeling on the top of my shoulder... it feels like I put Bengay or Vicks on it... it s hot to touch too... only on the hurt area... I thought it might be an infection, but there isn t any wound or tear... is that normal? I m on my 3rd day...

should have treated fracture clavicle with figure eight bandage. take check x-ray to see result maybe it is associated with fracture in other bone. consult orthopaedic surgeon for examination and advise. now hot compression can be applied and physiotherapy to be taken can take tab combiflam tablet and apply analgesic ointment.
