Hi Dear ,

As per your query you have pain in ribs shoulder and collar bone . Well the shoulder has a wide and versatile range of motion. When something goes wrong with your shoulder, it hampers your ability to move freely and can cause a great deal of pain and discomfort . This joint is also join with clavicle ( acromioclavicular joint ) and muscles from ribs . The probaable reason for symptoms is wrong sleeping posture . I would suggest you to do light stretching exercises and physical therapy for 2-3 days . If condition doesn't get better then consult orthopedic surgeon for proper diagnosis and rule out conditions like torn rotator cuff , pinched nerves , repetitive use or overuse injury , ligament problem and pain related to heart like angina . Doctor may prescribe muscle relaxant , anti inflammatory , steroid injection in joint or refer you to cardiologist .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
