What Causes Soreness And Swelling On Inside Of Right Clavicle Bone?
Since early July my right clavicle bone has felt swollen on the inside tip.There is a painful spot on the side and underside of that bone. It is quite sore and swollen in the fleshy part under the clavicle. I went to my Dr and he put me on a cleansing diet for 2 weeks, saying it sounded like a lymph node problem - clogged feeders to the lymph nodes. After the 2 weeks the Dr. did a deep massage on the fascia. All that did was cause bruising and more pain.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
The area is inflamed. A doctor would need to rule out the presence of infection as well to the area.
If there is no infection present the use of anti inflammatory medication may be enough. This would include medications such as ibuprofen, naproxen, diclofenac.
I hope this helps
