What Causes Swelling On The Left Side Of The Supraclavicular Fossa?

I have a swollen supraclavicular fossa on my left side it has been there for months. I had a ultrasound that came back negative I had lots of blood work done all negative. I have asked for a biopsy is there anything else I should be concerned about or ask for? I feel my neck would not just swell up just because?

Hi,
Welcome To Healthcare Magic.

I had gone through your query and understand it.

To do the diagnosis of swelling on supra-clavicle fossa, the physical examination and laboratory investigations are necessary which you have done and all are normal. So, you are asked for the biopsy, which is absolutely perfect for the diagnosis of swelling and better treatment to cure this. So, go for that as early as possible because it is enough for the diagnosis in this case. Share it to healthcare magic for an expert opinion.

Hope this information will be helpful to resolve your query and further queries are always welcome. I will like to answer them.

Wish you good health.
Take Care, Thank You.
