A member asked:

Lump on rib cage just under collar bone in the middle of chest?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Impossible to: tell just by this description. Soft tissue mass in this area is most likely lipoma, but it could be abnormally enlarged lymph node caused by infection or tumor. Have your doctor take a look at it.
