What Causes Swelling And Tenderness On Left Side Of Body?
The whole left side of body and the left side only is swollen and tender especially the upper left quad. I had the left medial head of my clavicle surgically removed. Do I need to have my lymph nodes checked. I have very large cyst in L breast. I just had chest xray due to the chemical levels of my uterine fibroid no results yet. I have gained weight and I feel fatigue.

Hi there. a clavicle surgically treated can definitely hamper the function of Thoracic outlet (mainly circulatory system). Breast cancers lead to blockage of lymph nodes and channels. Aditionally, hormonal imbalance in the body leads to weight gain due to fluid retention. Clinical examination and correlation is required though.
