A member asked:

I've had a sharp pain below my right collar bone that worsens when my arm or body is in certain positions. the pain goes right to the shoulder bone.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

X ray or MRI: Sounds like shoulder cause with pain that comes with positions. I would get evaluated by ortho and try rest, maybe therapy. It may be you need MRI and have torn rotator cuff or arthritis in shoulder.
