Enlarged LN: The ultrasoud report says you have an enlarged lymph node. Supraclavicular LNs enlarge for a variety of reasons, often some source of infection or inflammation in the chest or arm. Sometimes the initial source can be a tiny wound or entry point in the skin that heals over, but the inflammation takes root in the LN.
