[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 182022, member: 1963"] It certainly could be a fractured collarbone based on the location of the swelling as described. And...yes, it is possible for a chiropractor to fracture a collarbone during an adustment. Not likely, and not if if an adjustment is done properly, but yes, it could happen. Untreated/poorly healed collarbones can lead to nerve damage to the arm and ribcage on that side, and also to pressure on major blood vessels running from the chest to neck (Thoracic outlet syndrome) I speak from experience. I've got TOS on the left side due to an improperly healed collarbone fracture incurred thirty years ago. [/QUOTE]
