What Causes Pain And Swelling In The Shoulders?
I have suffered with on off shoulder blade pain for many years & have degenerative discs in my neck. Over last month I ve also had some pain around collarbone & shoulder blade pain quite bad. I m not sure if collarbone swollen as I ve never really studied it before. The actual bone looks bigger than left but could have always been like this. Any suggestions?

Hello,
It could be due to arthritis or conditions like frozen shoulder.
As a first line management you can take analgesics like paracetamol or aceclofenac for pain relief.
If symptoms persists better to consult an orthopedician and plan for an MRI scan.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
