Undisplaced # Clavicle & scapula heal naturally without any operative intervention. Give further 2-3 weeks. If you still continue to have problem consult any Orthopaedics surgeon in your area

Hello there.... Most clavicle fracture are left to heal naturally using a simple triangular sling to support the arm and hold the bones together in their normal positions..... In adults, it usually takes about six to eight weeks for a broken collarbone to heal, although it can take longer.... Consult orthopedician for further advice....
