Question 8

i also have a lump on my collarbone where it meets the breastbone,  its rather hard and immovable. i thought it was just my collarbone, but it definitely protrudes much more than on my left side. i can put my fingers round it. just bone?

Accepted Answer

Could be: You might be fairly slim which will mean your sternoclavicular joint (breastbone to collarbone) is quite prominent.  However without examining it dont know if something else like a cyst or other bony abnormality of the chest wall is occurring and some of the latter are associated with medical conditions.  So please see your GP for examination and tests
