A broken collarbone, or fractured clavicle, is a common injury. It usually happens after a fall or a blow to the shoulder. It takes about six to eight weeks to heal in adults, and three to six weeks in children. The collarbone, or clavicle, is a long slender bone that runs from the breastbone to each of the shoulders.
Intestinal infection causes include eating contaminated, raw or uncooked meat, unpasteurized milk and milk products, eating contaminated shell-fish, drinking contaminated water or swimming in contaminated pools. Many times, these bacteria and viruses spread through the fecal oral route.
In children, the most common cause of intestinal obstruction is telescoping of the intestine (intussusception). Other possible causes of intestinal obstruction include: Hernias â portions of intestine that protrude into another part of your body. Inflammatory bowel diseases, such as Crohn's disease. Diverticulitis â a condition in which small, bulging pouches (diverticula) in the digestive tract become inflamed or infected.
