What Does A Lump Below The Collarbone Indicate?
I have a lump about 2 inches below my collarbone on the left side. I brought it to the attention of two medical students a couple months ago. It was about the size of a pea, doesn t hurt, doesn t move. They said just watch it for now. So, at this point it has grown to about the size of a quarter.

Hello,
The lump below collar bone is most likely soft tissue swelling in form of sebaceous cyst or lipoma. Usually, benign and very slow growing lump.
For final management aspects, one time evaluation with a consultant surgeon or a photo picture as an attachment in follow up session is highly appreciated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
