Hello,
With the question "Is the arm injury after a clavicle fracture reversible?" , the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Based on your current condition, you have damaged the nerve that governs the movement and sensation of the arm. This is a lesion that needs careful clinical and paraclinical evaluation before giving appropriate treatment options depending on the condition of the lesion. Therefore, you need to arrange an examination at the Orthopedic Trauma Center so that the doctor can examine, evaluate specifically and give you accurate advice.
If you still have questions about arm injuries, you can go to a hospital under Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
