Clavicle/Sternum Popping during Push Ups

Heatherbelle_87

I was in a t-bone style car accident on 7/7/11. There were no fractures but the seatbelt left a beautiful impression of bruises and lacerations to my clavicle, bruises on my abdomen, and I had severe side-to side whiplash. I was cleared mondey to resume my normal excercise routine (an my Dr does know it includes modified pushups). But since I have started the push-ups again my clavicle and sternum Pop! Its not painful, I stopped after one gave me a little twinge, but it sounds horrible! Is there a reason for this? unfortuantly its not part of my medical background, and I dont want to bug my Dr I already bug enough.

I'd still call and ask, it may be displaced, or lose you never know, my hips pop like that but its because of my first child displaced my hips before birth.It may be nothing but i would call the doc before it does get worse.

I would stop immediately and call your Dr to see if they think that is normal. You can be doing more damage!! Good Luck!
