Bump on shoulder and collar bone pain? Please help!?

Hey guys. This weekend i had a hockey tournament and while playing i suffered an injury, but i cannot figure out what it is. Ok, heres what happened: I checked somebody into the boards and immediately felt pain in my collar bone. After the game, i took off my gear and there was a bump at the end of my collar bone, on the side closest to my shoulder. The bump hurts to the touch, and it hurts when I try to lift my arm up. Usually when it hurts, this might sound a little weird, I first feel pain on the bump, then it feels like the pain shoots through my collar bone towards my neck. The bump isn't actually on my collar bone so I know it's not a broken clavicle. What could it be?

Moveable lump on collarbone?

Right. You can pretty much rule out a lymph node, infection or cancer, based on your information. If it's sort of squishy, it's probably a harmless lipoma. If it's more firm, it may be a cyst. Or scar tissue. If it had been cancer, after five years you would definitely know by now, you'd have had other symptoms including enlargement (even if it has gotten slightly bigger over the years, that's not the same), pain, weakness, fevers, loss of weight, enlargement of lymph nodes in other areas around that side of your body, and the lump would be fixed, not movable as you describe. We all have these types of harmless things going on in one body part or another. So you can relax and know it's not a problem.

Please be careful when researching medical stuff on the web. I've seen so many younger teens with questions about very simple things such as a pimple or headaches, with their questions including, "am I going to die?" The Internet is a great tool, but it's also very confusing to those who aren't up on technical jargon, and it's very easy to come up with answers such as you describe - and that causes fear. And that fear is sometimes kept inside until it festers and creates a problem. When I was a kid we didn't have anything like the Internet. We had a dictionary, encyclopedia, and television. If you wanted to research, you went to the library. We really had no chance to be scared by obscure diagnoses.

I do a lot of free consulting work and am always open to questions. If you ever have something you're worried about, of course you can post it here, but please feel free to shoot me an email. I have 25 years of experience, and can either give you an answer or point you in the best direction to find it.

I hope this gives you some relief, and have a wonderful holiday season!

best, helen

Hard bone like bump in back of throat?

So im 18, have anxiety lately hypcondria (doesn't mean you should write me off just yet please). I put my finger down my throat today and on the left side felt a hard bump on the left side of my throat. I used to socially smoke. In my life ive smoked under 15 packs of cigs and probably about 40-50 cigarillos (never inhale the cigars). My question is should I be worried? I has blood work done not too long ago and had good blood (no spike in white or red blood cells). I dont smoke anymore. So should I be concerned since its small about the size of a pimple but its bony?
