Could The Swelling In The Collar Bone With Fluid Be Related To Any Heart Problem As I Had A Hear Attack Few Months Back?
I am a 41 yr old female. I have swelling above my collar bone on the left side with no pain. There is a little bit of swelling on the tight side as well. It feels like fluid. May 2013 I have a heart attack immediately following a basic surgery on my ankle. I was diagnosed with heart failure. In August I was told that I improved and no longer in heart failure. Could the welling in my neck be related to my heart?

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
Your swelling in the neck may not be related to the heart failure. When you had heart problem, they did the angiogram or placing a stent in the arteries of the heart or both, through the ankle.
I advise you to consult a surgeon for diagnosis and treatment of the swelling in the neck.
Take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts,and
protein rich foods to maintain a good health.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
