Good Afternoon Sir, my age is 29 years old. I met with a bike accident on dated 19.03.2017 in which my right collar bone had been broken into two pieces. The doctor advised to use a sling & brace for one month with proper medicine. After one month doctor said it has been connected & also advised not to use sling & brace. Now 3.5 month has been passed. Sometimes I am feeling pain in this joint. Am I able to ride bike now? How many days required to recover fully so that I ll be able to do all those work as previously. I request you to kindly suggest on the above matter. Thanks

Yes you can ride a bike but not for long distances. It will take around 3 more months to recover fully. Apply an ice pack twice a day for next one month over the fractured area for 6 minutes. You should do shoulder strengthening exercises for next one month.
