Shoe slipped off the pedal while going 28mph and immediately went into a death wobble. Fell on my left side and rolled and slid for about 25 feet. really need some cleats
If they tell you it will probably heal without surgery, push for the surgery anyway. I see my 3rd different trauma/ortho/shoulder surgeon this Friday and I broke mine last July

You need to see a dr as well to get that properly looked at and set.

Ooo. So sorry you’re living with that. Falling off a bike is how I broke my clavicle too. Never had pain like that before or since.

I broke my clavicle in three places (a break with a bone ‘chip’ floating around. I was considered on the fence regarding surgery and opted to forego the procedure. It took awhile to recover (4-6 weeks) and other than not being symmetrical on both side I’m fine. For what it’s worth my daughter broke her clavicle a week before (equine related) and she didn’t have surgery either. She had a fracture as opposed to an actual break. Surgery isn’t without risks and any time I that I have an option I go without surgery.
