A member asked:
My son, 36,says the front part of his collarbone on left side feels bruised, it is sore to touch & hurts when he moves his arm in certain ways, there is no swelling,he has not had any injury but he used to lift weights, what is this? is this serious?

Just avoid the arm position which exacerbates that pain for a couple days, apply cold or warm pack to the pain area +/- ibuprofen OTC as needed in the meantime. It depends on the exact pain location, problem could be from sternoclavicular vs. acromioclavicular joint, not the clavicle by itself if there is no history of injury/trauma. If symptoms get worse, he should be examined by an orthopedist.
