Suggest Treatment For Presence Of Fluids Near The Collarbone
Yes. My good friend (really) has recently developed fluid on her shoulders-- around he collarbone. I stumbled on a serious cause of this, thought I would remember and go back to the source, but now can t find it. She has had her doctors check this out and they come up with nothing. Any ideas? I am trying to find my source still but thought a doctor might come up with it.

Hi,
It could be an abscess or cystic swelling. Consult a general surgeon and get evaluated. An ultrasound scan might be helpful in this condition. Fine needle biopsy might be considered to make a diagnosis.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
