Clavicular Muscle

Clavicular Muscle

The term "clavicular Muscle" generally refers to muscles associated with the clavicle or collarbone. The major muscle in this region is the sternocleidomastoidIt originates from the sternum and clavicle and inserts into the mastoid process of the temporal bone. The sternocleidomastoid plays a crucial role in neck movements, including flexion, rotation, and lateral flexion. Additionally, the pectoralis major, although not exclusively clavicular, has a clavicular head that contributes to the muscle's overall function. The clavicular head of the pectoralis major assists in shoulder flexion and horizontal adduction. Injuries or strains to the clavicular muscles may occur due to trauma, repetitive motions, or overuse. Physical therapy and exercises are often employed for rehabilitation. Understanding the anatomy and function of the muscles associated with the clavicle is vital in orthopaedics and sports medicine, especially when evaluating and treating conditions related to the neck, shoulder, and upper chest. Rehabilitation strategies focus on restoring strength, flexibility, and functionality to optimize the overall health of the shoulder girdle and neck.
