Been there... twice. First time in highschool football at 14yrs old. Had the sling on for about a month, healed fine. Second time, about 18 yrs old, broke it on the same side, but in a different spot(this time on a bike). Took the sling off after 2 weeks against doctors orders. Healed with a lump. Keeping the shoulders back with the sling is the key.
Good luck to her. At her age, healing time will no doubt take longer, but take lots of calcium !
