Can A Pea Sized Bump On Collar Bone Be Associated With Rheumatoid Arthritis?
For over six years, I ve had a pea sized, movable bump on my left collarbone close to my shoulder. Each doctor I ask doesn t seem concerned, but hasn t really looked at it either. It hasn t grown in the whole time I ve been aware..maybe it s been there my whole life? I have rheumatoid arthritis, could it be connected to that?

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You may have some enlarged lymphnode or some soft tissue mass. If it remains same size and you don't have any symptoms then no need to worry. Just be relaxed. If you want to remove it then excision biopsy can be done. Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
