Hard Painless Mass On Bottom Of Collarbone, Does Not Move. X-ray Normal. What Is It?
I found a hard painless mass on the bottom of my left collarbone near the sternum. its about the size of a marble and does not move. It feels like its part of the bone. Xrays showed my bones to be perfect, no problems. I go for a CT scan in two days. I was just wondering what is the possibility of this being something bad?

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The hard painless mass on the bottom of the collar bone can be a swollen lymph node. This needs a direct examination and FNAC to confirm the cause.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
