Many years ago I accidentally discovered while I was lying in bed and examining my neck area that there are
lumps in the clavicula area.
They are pretty hard to actually get access to with my fingers. When I want to see them and grab them I have to pull
my shoulders back as far as possible and then I can basically move those lumps which have the size of a rice corn but
a bit thicker over my clavicula. I can basically trap the lump over the bone. But as soon as I move my shoulders it moves
back under the clavicula and is gone.
I have those lumps on both sides. I have been able to identify 1 lump on each side. I am not sure what this is.
I have showed it once to an intern and a dermatologist. They thought it's harmless but I just wonder what these lumps are.
They could be lipomas cause I have many lipomas they could also be lymph nodes.
Is there a way to find out what they are with ultrasound? It would be difficult to do an ultrasound of the lump cause I'd have to
get a hold of it and keep it trapped on the bone with my fingers.
I wonder do other people have this as well? Maybe you could also try and see if you have movable lumps. You'd have to draw back
your shoulders and then examine the area right over the bone. When my shoulders are drawn back then I can move the lump with my
finger downwards over the bone. Once I have it trapped with my finger and it cannot slip back I can move my shoulders forward again
and then I'm able to see the lump right under the skin.
