Left Side Of Neck Above The Collar Bone Swollen. How To Treat This ?
Hi sometimes the left side of my neck above the collar bone swells. It appears to be when I eat something that does agree with my system, overtax my system or other. It has happened for years and then it goes away. Today it started again and as I get older it is worrisome. I've never taken treatment for it, but it is clearly visible and feels a little pain but not much. If I clean my system with a colonic or laxative it will go away. But how can I avoid this?

Hi,
The left side of your neck above the coller bone swells,
when you eat which dis agrees with your system. it comes and goes away. with laxative it goes away.
You make a list of the things when you get it, and avoid them.
I also advise you to consult a gastroenterologist for diagnosis and treatment. he will try to find out if hiatus hernia etc are present or not . Thank you.
