I tore my ac joint due to a very strong impact. It is a grade 3 tear with the clavicle sitting pretty high up and loose.
There is not much pain left in the area but I cannot do any pressing of any kind in any angle(my best lifts :banghead. Also i think holding things standing up (deadlifts) seem out of the question since the bone juts out significantly more when i put weight in my hand. I seem to have lost the ability to shurg my left trap as well. I train very seriously and will compete in BB and Powerlifting.
I have insurance and money. I am convinced i need surgery to get full function back.
If any of you guys have experience with complete ac separations and recovery please chime in. This is pretty depressing. Any suggestions for doctors in the tri state area would be greatly appreciated as well.
Thanks in advance.
