Sprains and dislocations can occur at the sternoclavicular joint from direct trauma or indirectly from a compression force applied to the shoulder.

What are the symptoms of sternoclavicular joint injury?
At the time of injury, severe pain at the SC joint
Occasionally symptoms may be severe due to posterior displacement of the medial clavicle, and can include hoarseness, difficulty swallowing, difficulty breathing, a sense of fullness about the neck or a choking sensation
More chronic symptoms include pain around the SC joint, crepitus (crackling noise) and complaints of instability (clavicle feels like it “moves” anteriorly or posteriorly during activities)
Some patients will experience pain over the SC joint when reaching across their body
