Pretty much any broken bone in your body would be within an inch or two of cutting an artery.

Ross might be a drama queen or he might not be. A posterior dislocation of the sternoclavicular joint can compress your trachea or the great vessels in your chest which is a true emergency and many times requires surgery. But, the clavicle is inches away from those structures anyway.

We’ll never know by Hobson’s reporting because he clearly doesn’t understand the information he has been given. And I’ve told you before studies show patients forget 50% of what the doc tells them as soon as they walk out the door and they incorrectly remember 20-30% of the remaining 50%. So Ross maybe remembers 35% of what his doc told him correctly.
