Bone injuries

Bones may be broken (fractured) before or during delivery even when the delivery is normal.

  • A fracture of the collarbone (clavicle) is relatively common, occurring in 1 to 2% of newborns. Sometimes these fractures are not recognized until several days after birth when a lump of tissues forms around the fracture. Clavicle fractures do not seem to bother newborns and need no treatment. Healing is complete over a few weeks.

  • Fractures of the upper arm bone (humerus) or upper leg bone (femur) sometimes occur. Doctors usually apply a loose splint to limit movement. These fractures may cause pain with movement in the first few days. These fractures usually heal well unless the head of the bone (where growth occurs) is involved.
  • Fractures of multiple bones can occur in newborns with certain genetic conditions in which the bones are very fragile.
