Will tell my story to help others. I’m not young, about retirement age here in Australia, and was thrown off a dirt bike in the Blue Mountains, landing on my left shoulder. I’m 120kg, and the road was hard packed clay. This was September 2020. ​ So I had a type 3, complete separation of the AC. I paid for surgery 6 months later - had Dacron threads put in to replace the ligaments and recovered completely without medication nor physiotherapy. The only thing I would change, is to have the surgery earlier, but I had to decide first to forget about Medicare, and ante up $15k to get the surgery done privately and promptly. If I had waited for Medicare, it was at least a 12 month wait. After only 6 months, my clavicle was already tearing up through my shoulder on its way to my ear. The surgery was an immediate and welcome normalisation of my anatomy.

@@rumit9946 something to remember, if you put the clavicle back to its normal position using wires, you need to do it within 6-7 weeks after the injury and the earlier the better. The reason is after this amount of time, the ligaments will die, and if you can get it done right after the accident, the ligaments will actually grow back into place and after 6 months, you can have the wires removed and have a perfect shoulder again.

I'm almost 3 weeks into recovery and experiencing obvious shoulder stiffness, but It gets better day by day and when I look at my shoulders in the mirror they look just like before and I can already feel myself getting back to normal.

Thanks for the excellent information! I have a 5 year + injury to the AC joint, it's on my to-do list to have an orthopedist address it, once some more dire medical issues have been fully addressed (most importantly, hyperthyroidism, resulting in bone loss). I'll want to get with the orthopedist to see if PT might be more effective for the pain and loss of ROM. Still, that's why we have specialists, the specialized knowledge and experience. Still, on the triage list, it's way down on the list. There's a lumbar issue that is of greater concern, as there may be neurological deficit present. Yeah, medically, I'm a train wreck.

The doctor said the bumb will go away (I don't believe that when reading other people's experiences). He says that the bumb is "mostly" from swelling. I said that I disagree because he barely put pressure on the bone when checking how much luxation was possible. I told him to put more pressure. He then acknowledged that it was indeed worse than he expected. I asked him many other questions, such as: will the joint heal/reconnect again over time. He answered: "Yes". (maybe he meant it in a different way then I would describe it) However everything I read/learned so far tells me the opposite. He also said to do fysio therapy the coming weeks. And move the arm based on pain. Which is what I will be doing. But I am just really afraid how this plays out in the long term. I have read people getting neck and back pain or even issues with legs due to imbalance of the body. And obviously the loss of strength is a concern. And the "weird" feelings when moving the arm.

While playing basketball, a kid ran full speed into my extended arm. The injury sounded like multiple carrots being snapped around the same time, and felt like lightning struck my shoulder. The injury was 12 days ago, and I am just now able to do certain things. I used resistant bands yesterday, which hurt like heck, but made me feel better the next morning. I even bench pressed 30-lb dumbbells, yesterday morning, at a decline, flat bench, and incline for 5 sets each of 25 repetitions. Before, I was able to bench 100-lb dumbbells for reps, now it's scary to even think about trying it. The resistant bands are great though. Make sure to fight through the pain. Do isometric holds for 30 second repetitions. Cheers!

Ive separated my shoulder 4 times and im only 22. I hope medical science is fuckin awesome in 20 years when I’ll probably really be feelin it

I just tore my left AC about a week ago from a bicycle accident. Classified as type 3. My orthopedic surgeon says personally, he would not have surgery but will leave it up to me. Seems better not to do it as more complications are possible the longer your shoulder has to heal. Not to mention you’ll have to go through the recovery process all over again.

Hey guys, I decided to not have the surgery. I was in a sling for 2 days and was pretty much back to normal in 2 weeks. Went to maybe 5 physical therapy sessions. I notice no difference in my activities today. I do have a bump on my shoulder though. From what I have read about the surgery is that the recovery period is 3-6 months. The pain during the first week is pretty high. Surgery doesn’t even fix the ac joint. They just pull the collar bone down to appear normal. I don’t have time from work to even think of doing this. So, I’ll live with the bump. Good luck to you both!

@@joem5639 Hey, sorry to bother you, i have type 3 injury so the doctor said. Its been 2.5 months and i've regained some of my strength but my shoulder clicks when i move my arm in a certain way and sometimes i feel a small sharp pain when i push something hard. Do these problems remain after 1 year with you? (Im not thinking of having surgery either)

@@cigar1310 Hello there, Today I notice no pain whatsoever. I found that going to physical therapy and following their exercises with elastic bands really helped strengthen various muscles in the shoulder. For me, this helped eliminate pain from unusual movements. Sometimes, I would get a sharp pain if I made a sudden move or a jolt but that too has gone away. Give it some time, do some exercises to strengthen you shoulders and I’m sure you you will get better as well. Cheers!

Step deformity gang unite! Jokes aside got into a motorcycle accident where a car hit me from the side and I fell on my left shoulder, grade 3 injury 2.5 weeks after the incident now no pain during movement, there is the step deformity though. All the doctors I went to were 70/30 about no surgery and surgery so guess this bump will accompany me as a reminder till death do us part ⚰️ lol

Thank you Doc for the god presentation. Am healing from Grade 5 with surgery (button and kirschner-wire insertions 8 weeks ago). K-wires migrated so the doctor had to remove them after 2 weeks. I am healing well but anxious to start retraining lost strength in arm and back, when can I start active rehabilitation? Thanks!

Beyonder1881 I also had surgery for a grade 5. Do you still have a slight bump. I noticed mine still sticks up slightly

@Beyonder1881

I still have more than a slight bump, probably a 1-2 cm bump, permanently. I think its because the doctor removed the entire acromioclavicular ligament, which was smashed anyway. So there is no longer that connection to stabilise and keep things in line. In general - now 10 months after my surgery my shoulder is still weaker than the other side, but seems okay except for this permanent bump. I sometimes wonder if the surgery made any difference at all or if it would have healed up well (perhaps with less of a bump) on its own. I will never know.

I have a grade 5 . Week 3 now. Waiting for the docs to assess my shoulder.

I am about 9 months out of a grade 3 ac sep. have a lot of strength back ... but I used to bench press 100kg for 8 reps and 3 sets, i went to gym the other night and could do 40kg for 15 reps and it felt pretty good - a big improvement on where i had been. Overall, it has not changed my life - but definitely ruined serious weight training for me which is very frustrating.

Most of the reading indicated non-surgical recovery is preferred for all grade 1-3 injuries. I could have got surgery but because I am not a professional athlete and was 32 when I did the injury, I was OK with a slower and maybe more partial recovery

Can you please share how do you feel with your daily and sport activities ? I got my grade 3 ac sep. from falling from a bike in the mountain and its been almost 2 months from now. In that time i was seen like 10 different doctors / sport therapist / orthopedics and they are all like 50/50 to make the surgery or not to make it. Im 33 years old and i can say i live active life (playing football 2-3 times a week / snowboarding in the winter / voleyball , swimming and wakeboard not that frequently but still from time to time and i just started to get in the tennis)

Sir can you help me

Can anyone who choose NOT to do a surgery with a grade 3 ac sep. please share how do you feel with your daily and sporty activities after several months / years ? I got my grade 3 from falling from bike in the mountains and its been 2 months from now. I have seen like 10 different doctors / sport therapist / orthopedics and they are like 50/50 to do the surgery or not to. The point is that i can say i live an active life , im 33 now and i play a lot of football and snowboarding. Obvious thees sports are not effected by the ac sep. but i also play volleyball every now and then , occasionally wakeboard with friends and i like to swim and lately i get into tennis. One of the doctors said that "if i want to continue with those active sports , its mandatory to do the surgery because the joint doesn't funcion properly and i could get arthrosis latter on" If i dont push it too much , i can go without surgery. My question is can anyone tell me how does it feel after several moths or years have passed ? Thanks a lot and thanks for the video

I'm 7 weeks today after a mtb accident. Fell many times but this time i fell bad and on downhill into a ditch. I manage to ride another 15km's to the finish in pain. I would've done surgery but cannot as my coracoid process also broke. So nothing to attach the LARS ligament on. Now i need to wait 9 months minimum to be sure and then if i feel the need i can do surgery. So at this stage its a waiting game. I can say however for me this is a looooong process. I'm very active cyclist, mtb and road. Even tho i do stationary i'm still very depress. My shoulder feels like it is taking longer than usual. Out of the sling and can move my arm, but only to some degree. Still very weak and i put no weight on it.

I'm two years in from grade three. I'm having surgery next week. It got better for awhile before it got worse. At this point I feel surgery is worth a shot before I accept I'm screwed up for life. The bump still sticks way up and I have pain everyday. Especially when it gets cold out. I got mine from being thrown from a motorcycle and landed on my shoulder. But hey at least I didn't die. Hope you have good luck. I would get the surgery before arthritis kicks in. Why wait till then it will only make it worse. Wish I would have fixed it right away.

Schrodinger Hi. How are your shoulders. Does the right one feel absolutely normal without any issues? Have you had anything done to the left one?

today meh mom was picking me up from school and was 2 tables of gettting of the way so i decided to go under the table and the heavy table got all of its weight on my left index finger and then i got joint injury we immediatly went to hospital and they put a bandage between my middle and left index fingers and the nurse told me to keep it for a week and come back so the doctor would check my fingers again..

I Just woke up One morning, stretched a bit my arms to wake up like everyone usually do, and then CRACK CRACK i fucked my AC joint, apparently only stretched It. It even dislocated 3 times damn it

I have grade 1 ac injury

I dislocated my AC joint when I was 13. Let me tell you, it’s extremely painful.

Sunday Morning my surgery date is March 18th, I also feel like you and worrying but it’s what I’ve wanted since the accident. I’m 24 so I feel like if I get the surgery now and suffer for another 12 months recovering, at least that’s better than chronic arthritis in a few years and have to deal with that as well as the joint still being unstable. How long since you injured yours? It’s still hard to accept now as I played rugby, boxing and heavy weights. I just want to be able to play sport again with it moving around as much as it does.
