ABSTRACT
Clay-Shoveler's fracture refers to a fracture that is solely developed on the spinous process of the cervical spine or the thoracic vertebrae. This fracture rarely occurs during sporting activities. In this case, an 18-year-old female developed the fracture on the spinous process of the 7th cervical spine and 1st thoracic vertebrae due to the repetitive practice of cheerleading. The patient's pain was improved by wearing a support device and taking an anti-inflammatory analgesic drug and muscle relaxant. Her case is being followed-up at the outpatient department.
