What Is The Most Commonly Broken Bone In The Human Body?

The collar bone, called the clavicle, is the bone which is most frequently broken in our bodies. Categorized as a long bone, this particular bone forms part of the body's shoulder girdle (that is, pectoral girdle).

Situated on either side of a human body's chest, this bone links your sternum (that is, breastbone) to your scapula (that is, shoulder bone). Bone strength is of crucial importance to avoid fractures in general and it is significantly reduced in individuals with osteoporosis.
