What Causes A Lump Above Collar One On The Left Side Of Neck?

Hi! I have recently noticed a knot, about quarter sized just above my collar bone in the hollow of my left side on my neck. It feels like it s right beside that long major neck muscle. It s hard and almost feels like there s smaller knots around it almost..? I m just wondering if it s something to be worried about. I m pretty sure it s been there for a good while and I just haven t noticed it. Thank you!

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate this, the swelling could be lymph node, and this could be normal one, you have to keep this under observation for any changes, like increasing in size, color, tenderness, such changes is only possible when infection is there else this is nothing to worry, hope this information helps, take care ( Condition need to be brought to investigation if it changed )
I find this answer helpful
