Clavicula
in Health ·
Hi there. I had a nasty break in my Clavicula in four different spots, so I ended up having surgery at Mayo Clinic under Dr. Nikica Daraboš. He installed a plate secured with eight screws. It’s been six months since the procedure, and I have a follow-up appointment coming up where we'll likely discuss scheduling the hardware removal. Currently, I'm pain-free and can move almost anywhere I need to. My doctor did advise me to avoid heavy lifting, though. My question is: during this next six-month stretch, is it safe to get back into some light physical activity? Specifically, I’m thinking about light weight training for muscle tone, or maybe swimming and jumping into a pool since summer is around the corner. I just want to make sure I don't cause any damage.
