What Causes A Lump Above The Collar Bone Along With Sore Throat?

Hi. There s a tiny lump above my collarbone (left side). I ve touched it so much I don t know if it hurts and I don t know if it s movable. My only other symptom is I have a soar throat more on my left side. I did see my doctor a few days ago and she did touch around my neck area and probably didn t notice. I noticed the lump just right now. I am very worried. What could it possibly be?

Hi.
Thanks for your query, read and understood your concerns.
Noted your history of sorethroat and lymph node on the same side, the left.
It is possibly due to the infection that speed to the lymph nodes.
A course of an antibiotics and supportive treatment of antiinflammatory and other medicines should help for both the problems.
