Separated Shoulder – Symptoms and Causes

Deformity

In some cases, the outer part of the collarbone might look out of place. You can check around the shoulder for any signs of deformity. Also, there might be a small bump forming on the top of the shoulder where the clavicle bone stops. This is one of the most obvious symptoms of a separated shoulder. It is mostly associated with a grade three injury. This means your injury is very serious and requires immediate medical attention to prevent further complications.[5]
