How To Get Rid Of Pain From Lump Above My Collar Bone?

I have a little lump right above my collar bone and went I touch it I get a shocking pain all down my right side. It's not visible I can just feel it. About a week ago pain/shocking feeling is showing up out of the blue followed by a burning sensation. Don't know what it is. Should I be worried or can I do anything for the pain to go away? Advil/ibuprofen aren't working.

Hello friend,

You should not take such painful lump lightly.

It can be an abscess or something else which requires an evaluation after visualizing the lesion.

Full systemic examinatiion may also be required.

So, i will advice you to visit your doctor so that it can be examined thoroughly and correct advice can be given accordingly.

Thanx
