Suggest Treatment For Swollen And Bruised Collar Bone In A Child
My 18 month old daughter fell and hit our coffee table and now has a swollen collar bone and light bruising. She acts like the arm is sore but is still going on and playing like normal. She does have discomfort when being picked up. Is it broken or just bruised?

Clavicles are easily fractured in children, but they unite easily too. It would be good for you to consult a Paediatrician immediately.
