I just recently broke my collar bone, and wanted to do some travel, (specufically fly to china to go work there).
has anyone had experiance with a broken collar bone and how long it takes you to be able to do things again?

6-8 weeks (which is pretty normal for any bone repair) if i remember when correctly from when my friend broke his.

I have broken my arm, leg, hand (boxer break), 2 fingers, toe, nose, and they all took roughly a couple months to heal. I guess what I am really trying to say is that I feel for ya, and hope you get better soon

i heard 8 weeks. But you shoudl go back to whatever you were involved in slowly. And dont do anything that would hurt it in the mean time cause if it doesnt heal properly than you will regret not letting it heal the way it should have.
