Sore spot right above right clavicle
Hi HER-2ers,
I'm feeling a sore spot right above my right clavicle
bone near the shoulder. It's tender to the touch but doesn't hurt otherwise. I've recently increased my weight lifting exercises so I'm
thinking it's a sore muscle or something. I don't feel a hard lump or node, but today I'm feeling what appears to be soft tissue of some
kind or a pocket of fluid. I did have the area radiated to the max.
Has anyone experienced something like this before?
Thanks!
Marcia
