Can Extreme Exercise Cause Squishy, Painful Bump Above The Collarbone?
I have a squishy bump above my right collarbone that moves and goes over the bone and it is painful to touch and the area is swollen and puffy a bit above my collarbone. I just started doing a lot of yoga recently and am wondering if it s related to this sudden extreme exercise ?

Dear patient
This is not related to your yoga and it might be lipoma or swollen lymph nodes. You need to go for ultrasound of local part for confirming diagnosis. If it's lipoma it needs excision and if it's lymph nodes short course of antibiotics will help in reducing swelling. All rheumatologist best.
