I feel very small circles under my skin on chest and near shldrs when i press hard, seems as if muscles are tore, can these be lymph nodes in nrml siz?

Unlikley: A localized physical exam would be necessary to venture an opinion, but subcutaneous lymph nodes are not generally seen in the areas you describe. If you are overweight that could be subcutaneous fat. Regardless, muscle soreness should be separately evaluated. Are you weight lifting?
