Suggest Treatment For Pain In Collarbone

Good afternoon, This morning at 5:00 a.m., I awoke with pain in my left collarbone, also the left side of my head was aching. I got up and started my day. The pain eventually in my collarbone went away. Perhaps I was sleeping with my neck bent, idk. But still having a headache, I laid back down at 7:00 and slept until 9:45. I am 56, female, only medical issues I have are thyroid, which I take 112 mg of Synthroid daily. I am 5 3 and weigh 160. Yes, I am overweight, however I am active. Normally, I never sit to just sit, but actual exercise is optional. Which I know is bad, but to be honest I have no energy, especially today. Thank you for your time and assistance. Jill

Hi,

It may be due to minor muscle pulls or contusion that have developed due to abnormal positioning during sleep. Nothing much to worry and you can take simple analgesics like acetaminophen or Diclofenac for pain relief.Generally the symptoms will settle by itself in couple of days.

Hope I have answered your query.
