...and the doctor told me that breaking a scapula was really fucking hard to do. How much of a pain in the ass am I in for? Or should I say pain in my right shoulder. Anyone else done either of these?
 
wtf? how did you break your scapula???? that is going to cause some serious stability problems in your shoulder. be sure to rehab to the fullest.

i've broken a clavicle; that's a pretty routine injury... but your scapula??????? how is that even possible?
 
i broke my clavicle pretty bad, had to have surgery. that was like a week ago.its been really painful at times but manageable. pm me if you have any questions or whatever. im happy to help if i can

i broke my calv and my scapula once. the hardest part is finding a way to sleep comfortably. imma take a guess and say that you fell flat to your face leaning to whatever shoulder you fell on. did you break the head of your scapula?
 
This is why I love skiing and everyone involved. There aren't many people that could understand the notion of a "routine injury"
 
I'm not entirely sure what part I broke. I'm not even sure how I fell haha. I was going off this barrel tap thing and I popped way too hard, fell about 10 to 15 feet onto the ground probably how you said. I'm not sure if I got knocked out but I remember one ski falling off and yelling "FUCK." I thought I went through my abc's but I'm pretty sure I only made it to p and then said "now I know my abc's, won't you sing with me."

After that, I gathered my skis and skied 150 yards to the patrol house and walked in saying "I think I have a shoulder injury." The guy told me my shoulder was probably dislocated and gave me 100mcgs of fentenyl. While we were waiting for an ambulance, the patroller and I talked about how much skis have progressed in size. I had my ll2s and he was saying how he had a pair of 76mm waisted nordica beasts and those were fat pow skis for their time. He was pretty cool but I digress

I get taken by ambulance (probably unnecessary but I had no ride down the mountain) and dropped off at the hospital. The docs give me 100mcgs more fentenyl and then sent me to a ct scan. It showed a break in my clavicle and scapula. I'll put up my initial xrays in a little bit. Unfortunately, I have a low tolerance for painkillers and they make me extremely nauseous. When I got my wisdom teeth pulled I just used ice and ibuprofen. It isn't the break that hurts, it is the nausea that sucks

I'm most worried about writing notes, taking showers, and using my non dominate hand for everything. I'm even more worried about how I'm going to masturbate, I never really did like the stranger :)
 
sigged

and to OP, that sucks ass. i broke my dominant hand clavical and was pretty much useless for 4-6 weeks. it sucked.
 
When I broke my collar bone they gave me this body sling that wraps around your back and collar bone, get this if you can it actually helped a lot
 
Clavicle is easy...I broke both of mine. Worst part is the first week or so when every minor movement really hurts bad...you don't realize how much it moves until you break it.

That being said..both times the DR was like oh 6-8 weeks youll be out. I took this crazy herbal chinese medicine my mom gave me and idk what is in that shit but I was seriously healed in like 2 weeks to 95%.
