Hi,Thanks for your query. After going through your query I came to know that you are having pain in right chest and collar bone area .I think you may be suffering from infection and sore throat along with upper respiratory infection. For pain relief you can take analgesic such as ibuprofen. Vitamin B and C are helpful in recovering.You may need antibiotics for it. You need to do chest x ray for it. For detail examination HRCT of chest can be done. You can discuss with your treating Doctor about it. I do hope that you have found something helpful. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. Wishing you good health. Take care.
