Lump In Neck, Above Collar Bone

Hi. I am 22 years old and have a lump in
the right side of my neck, just above my
collar bone for a while now. I never went
to the doc about it because my mom seemed
to think it was nothing, but recently i've
noticed it more. It is definitely still
there and maybe a tiny bit bigger. I feel
tired all the time and am always running a
very low fever, but i'm never actually
sick. Starting to get worried. Anyone
have any idea what this could be???

You should get that check out asap!
Never ignore lumps in any part of your
body! Get to your docter now! I won't
go into what it might be...It may be
nothing...But won't it be great to know it
is nothing! Your mom is not a
doctore...Neither am I for that matter.
If you gave your symptoms to your Dr.
Office...I am sure they would fit you in
very quickly! If not.....Push to get in
soon.

Hello college girl
I would seriously
go get that checked out at your drs I am
no specialist but from what you have
described sounds to me like its your
thyroid acting up on you. Ppl whom have a
thyroid condition can be efected in 2
different ways 1) is underactive and so
they are tired and they find it hard to do
every day things like just going for a
walk leaves them in sweat.
And 2) could be over active and making
things worse. It is checked with a simple
blood test to see is\f you have a thyroid
problem, but as you are telling me here
that there is a lump already that may
suggest that you have a goiter. And that
is where the thyroid gland swells growing
and it is near your collar bone. Also in
women with thyroid problems cholesterol
being too high is another risk factor ask
your mum if any of these things run in the
family best to get this sorted now before
turns cancerous and needs removal.

Lump

Hello
at the age of 19 yrs, I developed a lump
above my collar bone. I went for all the
necessary tests and it came back as a form
of cancer called hodgekins disease. I had
to under go exploratory surgery to see if
it had spread into my stomach.
Fortunately it did not. It remained in
the area of my shoulder and chest. I had
to under go 11 weeks of radiation therapy.
It was a tough time in my life but I made
it through. I have been cancer free for
almost 20 yrs. Hodegekins disease is a
cancer that effects the lymphatic system.
It can be spread throughout your body
because it can travel in the blood.
Fortunately, it is one of the most
treatable forms with the highest survival
rate. If you have a lump, are
experiencing night sweats, fever, even if
you are not. Go to a doctor right away.
If your doctor does not think it is
serious, go to another. It is better to
be safe than sorry.

Two Lumps In Neck But Both Different

:( about three years ago I got this lump
on the side of my neck above the collar
boan. Drs said it was fatty tissue no
big deal. It fits into my 4 fingers when
I cup it. So ok it does feal really
soft.
But I also had this tiny hard lump on the
front of my collar bone, about where it
comes to a point and you have these large
vains that go up your neck.It is
bothersom. The doctor had trouble
finding it so they decided to see if it
grew.
Well now it think it has grown just a
little. Enough to bother me. At times
it seems tender and almost hurting. Does
anyone have any ideas of what it may be?

Hello,
don't remember exatly what it is called
ini my case but have similar lumps on my
rib cage close to the colar bone. "if" it
is what it seems to be, may not be of
concern. It might just be some kind of
fatty tissue that accumulates into one
spot. And usually will not be looked at
unless it is really painful. To my
knowledge, if it were a nodule, wether hot
or cold, it shouldn't be so hard. You
should still be able to deform it when
pressing it down against you. But when in
doubt get it checked out. Hope this info
is usefull.
Regards
larry

Well you know, i'm no doctor by far. I
just did research online and through
differrent site. You might be able to
find info within this site
http://larry.Dedjoker
.Googlepages.Com/home
it is my home page and through the
research that I have done for myself I
have put together a kind of little package
of different links of certain well built
and simple clear site that you can find
information relatively easy. Don't mind
the computer stuff though, go right to the
cancer link as you go down the page. A
bit of my story also in there. If you
can't find the info that you need, post
again I will try to find something for
you. And don't forget that even lumps
don't mean that it will test positive for
cancer. But I would brace for it just in
case. Just don't make it ulcers just
expect it in my opinion. You should read
the about me within my site. It will give
you an idea of where i'm coming from.
Let me know what you need if anything
else.
Good luck
larry

I've been looking around and found this
site. In case you're interested, you can
go and have a look. Don't jump to any
conclusions though.Very important. Let
the experts make the final decision. But
here is the link for your info ::
http://www.Thyroidcancer.Com/
main thing be open minded and like I say,
doctors are still ahead of everyone else.
They have the technology. Demand answers,
it's your right it's their obligation !
Good luck

Lump On Collar Bone

Hi, i'm english and live in france. I
found a very hard lump on my left collar
bone, about 1 month ago, went to Dr. Who
thought it was an inflamation due to
arthritis (i'm 50yrs), gave me blood test,
nothing unusual, but put on anti
inflamtories for 2 weeks. Still there,
so monday I go for an x-ray and an
echogram (don't know what you call it in
english, it's similar to what pregnant
women have). Dr thinks it is a cyst,
hope so. No symptoms, doesn't hurt.
But i'm still worried.

Lump On Left Side of Neck
Posted: 10-10-06 10:52am
|
|

|

I found a lump above my collar bone on the
left side about four years ago and the
doctor then said that is was nothing
without ever looking it over. Last week
I had it looked at and the doctor said it
feels like a benign tumor but I am getting
sent in to have a yearly check-up done
thursday. I do know that I have a low
thyroid and neurofribromatosis, which
could of formed from something along that
but I don't know. I had a cat-scan
and/or mri last year but they said nothing
about it (i had them done for a large mass
on they right side of my neck). If
anyone has any suggestions of what it
could be it would be great help. The
lump itself is in the middle of the collar
bone near the sholder and it hurts when it
is compressed and it feels like it is
about the size of a golfball.

i have the same thing, it's probably a
centimeter in diameter. It's relatively
soft but it's definitely a mass of some
sort and again, it kinda moves from the
top of my collar bone, down below it.
When I first noticed it I talked to a
friend who's an e.M.T. He said it might
be a cyst so I went to the doctor today
about it, she looked at it for a whole 30
seconds and said it was nothing. Probably
just an inflamed lymph node. From the
research i've done there aren't any lymph
nodes in that location... I don't think
my doctor is taking my concern
seriously... If someone has any theories
as to what it might be I would really
appreciate it.
