Brief Answer:
dislocation of the clavicle

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for contacting HCM with your health care concerns

I am sorry to hear that you are having pain in your right collar none. It is possible that you dislocated the collarbone from the sternum. I would recommend that you see your medical provider. You may need to have x-rays and a splint for the shoulder. This can sometimes happen with just sleeping in the wrong position or with small trauma. It is not dangerous but is painful.

I hope I answered your question. Please contact us again if you have any additional questions
