What Does A Movable Lump On Collarbone Indicate?

default
Posted on Thu, 16 Oct 2014
Question: I have a small, movable lump on the left side of my collarbone. What type of specialist should I go to in order to get this checked out--they recommended an orthopedic but that doesn't sound quite right. I am an XXXXXXX living in italy so I don't have a PCP so it will be easier to go right to a specialist.
