Question
How long does it take for a newborn’s right clavicle fracture to heal? When can the right hand’s movement return to normal?
Answer
The baby’s fracture is relatively minor and usually does not require special treatment unless it is a complete fracture. It is recommended to rest and avoid strenuous activities. Typically, recovery takes place around 4-6 weeks. Children recover faster, with most recovery occurring within a week, and complete recovery taking about a month.
