A 16-year-old male adolescent with no significant medical history presented with right shoulder pain and dysphagia after a football injury. He was tackled and landed on his right shoulder. On arrival, the patient was holding the right arm close to his body, with the elbow flexed at 90 degrees and the shoulder slightly internally rotated. There was tenderness over the entire right clavicle and slight deformity on the medial aspect of the clavicle (Figure 1). There was no evidence of neurovascular compromise on examination. A right clavicle radiograph was obtained (Figure 2).
