What Causes Lump On The Tip Of The Clavicle?

I have a hard lump at the tip of my right clavicle. It showed up about a week ago. The tip I mean close to the sternum. When I push on it I get some pain. My shoulder also has been hurting. It has a certain position when I raise my arm when it really hurts.

Hi, this is possibly a keloid or neurofibroma like condition and not to worry much about this!

Not and try not to get infected there!

I suggest you to go for an FNAC test of the lump for confirmation and to relieve your concerns!
