When the distal clavicle fracture can be lifted depends entirely on the treatment program adopted after the fracture. If the fracture is a simple fracture and is treated conservatively, it will take about 2 months for the fracture to heal relatively securely before the shoulder can be slowly lifted and functional rehabilitation exercises can be performed in this case. If the fracture is immobilized with a plate and the fixation is relatively firm, the shoulder can be lifted after the wound has healed without pain, i.e., in about 10-15 days, and functional rehabilitation exercises for the shoulder’s range of motion can be carried out at this time. The general principle is to wait until the fracture is well stabilized and able to withstand lifting before doing these exercises. Otherwise, if you do it early, it will affect the healing of the fracture, and even in the later stages, as long as the activity is more or the shoulder is in the wind, cold situation, the pain is very obvious.
