Q

How many grades of AC joint separation are there?

A

Grade 1- ligaments are just stretched, tender on AC joint b/c of partial tear to AC ligament
Grade 2- tearing of Acromioclavicular ligament, but coracoclavicular still in tact. Clavicle will rise
Grade 3- all ligaments torn
Clavicle will rise all the way up
