Clavicle fractures rarely need surgical intervention.
Bone formation is seen on X-rays around 3-4 months. So very difficult to comment on anything based on this X-ray.
For clavicle fractures, you should stop using sling now, start range of motion exercises for your shoulder.
These fractures unite around 3-4 months so can get an X-ray repeated then!
