Hi, I was assulted 4 years ago, I ended up with a broken clavicle one My left side. It took the clinic over a year to send me to a hospital to have it diagnosed. By that time I was told calcium had built up between the bones, they said surgery would be to dangerous. I didn't understand that, I started having painful grinding and popping in my neck on the same side. Now it is really bad, I struggle to get any good sleep. I had a xray and was told I have 3 bone spurs, it seems to be getting worse "numbness in my arm and fingers, popping that is very painful and seems like just balancing my head". I'm a mechanic by trade, I haven't been able to work since 12/23/12. I was denied dissabily and have been struggling since. Is having surgery on my shoulder which is always in pain dangerous, my neck is bad too. I'm just very Leary about surgery, should I be?
