Fractured collar bone, How long till I can stop wearing my sling

(Original post by deividas_kasper)
Alright guys, Just a little under 2 weeks ago I got taken out playing football and landed on my shoulder at speed and fractured my collar bone, suprisingly it didn't hurt as much as I thought a broken collar bone would do and I actually continued to play on till after a minute later when I felt the crack and came off.Anyways I went to the hospital and did the X-Rays and the doctor said it should heal within 3-6 weeks and should hurt for a week so I should take pain killers . One day in i stopped taking pain killers as I felt no pain. A week later i visited the fracture clinic and without even doing a new X-Ray or checking the progress a different doctor aid come back in 5 weeks which from what I'm feeling currently it will heal much earlier. For anyone wondering I'm 18 in 3 days so from what I've seen online I don't actually know how long it will take to heal fully. My main question right now is when can I take off my sling? My fracture is not moving and my arm feels moveable below shoulder height. I also feel better without my sling on when I go take showers and go to bed wthout it on. Having it on throughout the day just aches my left arm and shoulder and I just feel tensed nd it feels like such a relief when I take it off for a bit. I'm going to continue to wear it for a little longer but i just want advice since my 18th is also coming up soon.Thanks guys
