What Causes A Lump Above The Collar Bone?

I found an olive sized lump above my collar bone. It is loose and sort of moving around. My neck has been stiff for weeks and I get very tired each day. I thought it was mono (I had glandular fever a number of years ago) but I m not sure about the lump

This one is a lymph node or could be some lipoma / neurofibroma; not to worry much about it!

Please go for an FNAC test to relieve your tension as a lymph node in this location might be a sign of some serious disease elsewhere!
