What Causes A Raised Area Around The Suprasternal Notch?
I have a raised area just south of the suprasternal notch. 56 year old female. Excellent health, former social smoker (1 pack er week over 3 social events ). Weight diet and and exercise all good. Current on all tests. I am menopausal, and medicated for thyroid disease (levothyroxine.25 mcg). What could this be? It s uncomfortable and feels abnormal. Ideas?
