6 mnth baby collar bn brk
My 6 month old baby fell from bed and broke his collar bone. X-ray report showed that collar bone is broken from middle. I visited orthopedic doctor, he just apply a cotton tape around neck and hand to prevent the hand from being straight. He said that nothing else needs to be done and it will automatically heal. Please guide.
