Q

How do you differentiate between fractured clavicle or dislocated shoulder?

A

Look for rounded profile of the shoulder:

Shoulder dislocation:
* Shoulder squared off – can see acromioclavicular joint

Clavicular fracture:
* Rounded profile of shoulder - SCM pulls medium section upwards. Tenting of the joint

Clavicle on left; shoulder dislocation on right
