BTW....what is a slap test?
And Sloan.....i would go to a doctor right now if I could afford it. I drop my insurance coverage during the winter when I don't ride....I simply can't afford the $300-$400.00 a month. I won't ride without it though.

Ortho's seem to concentrate on mending only your bones as quick as they can and dont seem concerned as to any underlying issues.. This guy was far more concerned about how to identify and correct ALL issues from bone-to-muscle-to-nerve, non-surgically unless truly required. Mostly though, It was an eye opening experience to meet a sports doc who gives a shit!!!!!
I've had two labrum surgeries on my left shoulder and it's still screwed up! Pushing never gave me a problem. Pulling on something hurt and made my arm feel like it was about to pull out of socket!
If I've learned anything about surgeries it's this....don't do it unless you absolutely have to!
I had a hard fall basically flat on my chest. For about a year there was some movement in the bones that wasn't normal...a pop. But, fortunately it didn't hurt and has stopped doing it.
You may have damaged some connecting tissues (like show mentions). Hope it turns out non-surgical.
All I can say is, GO TO THE HOSPITAL! Get it checked out.
Also, if I reach back and push down on my scapula, it hurts. I am wondering if I had a broken scapula also.
RR400....sounds like you got that collar bone pretty good! I have broken both of mine a few times and it sucks! I'm about 99% positive that I cracked it again on that last wreck , but it didn't break all the way through.
Kind of hard to explain exactly where my pain is. But if i take my left hand , and reach over the top of my right shoulder and put it on my upper shoulder area on my back....there is a big bone called a "Scapula" ( Shoulder blade ) ( look here >>> http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/4e/Human_skeleton_back_… )
If I reach around , put my fingers on that , push in just slightly , and then pull up , there is a lot of pain right underneath my collar bone area. It's hard to pin point exactly where the pain is coming from , but my collar bone feels like it's about ready to snap when I do that.
I think I may have torn something....but I have no idea what.
See a doc. Any certified orto should do the trick, in Sweden a general practitioner is often enough. He then most likely will give you a referral with some info to a physical therapist? That's how it goes in my hoods.
Still docs in the US are so afraid to be sued (I assume people often sue them), so just to make sure they often do unnecessary x-rays and MRI ($) which often says shit.
Anyway, exercise is often the only cure, not often they operate.
Anyway, I didn't get a bad feeling while reading about you shit, if that helps?
Cheers buddy, keep us updated and see a doc if you feel worried (which you seems to be).
By the way, could you go to a orto in the US just for this and pay cash for an simple exam? If he has balls he will not force you to x-ray, or MRI which would mean only 30 minutes of his time for an basic shoulder exam.
