Q: swelling above left clavicle

asked by: pawrob on June 25th, 2009

I have a large, swollen area above my left clavicel. There is no pain, no tenderness no redness, and I have not had any injury to that area. The swelling is fairly large, and soft - no nodule or 'lump'. I have a pre-existing 25 cm tumor on the left side of my thyroid, and the last biopsy was negative. Does anyone no if the swelling could be related to my throid issues?

Neck Swelling

I have the exact same thing. I noticed it about four days ago (july 21). Did your swelling ever go away? Did you find out any more information?

neck swelling above clavicle

I have the exact symptom, but it swells on both sides above the clavicle. Mostly on the left. It is not painful and it comes and goes. I noticed it the first time the day after I gave birth, so I wonder if it was from the strain of pushing. I have been to numerous doctors and have had every test you can think of. They can not seem to diagnose it and have no information for me. i wish I knew more about this.
