Back Support for KidsThis child posture support features wide padding that is effective for immobilizing the shoulder as well as comfortable. The felt pad at the back is covered in knitted stockinette material, also in the interests of user comfort.The hook-and-loop closure of this kids’ clavicle brace means it can be put on and taken off in a relatively easy fashion.Another advantage of this youth shoulder posture brace is that it is latex free, which is a boon for those with allergies to this product.Unfortunately, a break to the clavicle, also known as the collarbone, is a relatively common injury. A fall onto an extended arm, a blow to the shoulder and other such forces can all break this relatively unprotected bone that does not fully harden until roughly age 20. See more pediatric supports for sports and other injuries.Poor posture that this brace for children can treat is also a relatively common phenomenon. Heavy backpacks, poor self-esteem and hunching over a laptop, phone, tablet, etc. can all compromise one’s posture, as can a number of congenital deformities of the spine. Lean more about posture braces.Clavicle Fracture & Posture Support for Kids Treatment for a clavicle fracture is dependent upon the severity of the break. For more minor ones where the bone remains in alignment and there are no displaced bone fragments, immobilizing the shoulder with clavicle brace for kids for a period of time is usually sufficient. Taking an anti-inflammatory and icing the shoulder can help reduce pain and inflammation. After the period of immobilization, physical therapy will likely be recommended to restore range of motion and strength to the arm and shoulder.For more serious injuries to the collarbone where the bone shifts out of alignment, bone fragments are present or the bone is forced out of the skin, surgery and the use of surgical hardware like plates, screws, etc. will likely be needed.
