I came out of a collision with a truck with a separated shoulder (not a bad result all considered..) and did what everyone does. I googled like mad.

It seems they often do not operate. You just have a weird pointy shoulder forever. But two months later mine still hurts and even makes it hard to sleep.

I know the answer is "See your doctor" and I will. But I thought I'd crowd source here first.

If you had separated shoulder, did you get an operation? How long did it take to heal from the injury, and from teh operation? Any advice?
