What Causes Pain In The Collar Bone?
I am trying to figure out why, for the past several weeks, I have many days where my collar bones hurt/ache. I haven t had a chiropractor adjustment for a while but I ve never had this particular issue before. Then I wonder if it has to do with the way I sleep on my side, but I have always done that...

Hello,
-Arthritis
-Any traumatic injury of the bone or the acromio-clavicular joint
-Also sleeping position.
I suggest you to take anti-inflammatory medication such as Ibuprofen or Naproxen daily for 1-2 weeks. Also continuing physiotherapy might help. If your pain doesn't improve, you should consult a doctor for a physical examination, to evaluate pain.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
