I have found a small lump above my right collar bone. it feels like fatty tissue and is moveable. it is also painful to touch. should i seek help.

Yes: If it is bothering you I would have it surgically removed. It is an easy quick outpatient procedure. Likely this is a fatty lump called a lipoma but very slight risk of something more serious such as an enlarged lymph node.

I have a lump on the left side of my collar bone it is soft and moveable, its weird because it will disappear and then reappear throughout the day. If I feel it and move it around it will just go away and then a few minute/hours later I will feel it?
