Is Swelling Right Below Collarbone On Both Sides Related To Autoimmune Diseases?
Hi I am 48 years old 5 3 160 pounds and female. I have what seem like fat pockets or fluid or swelling right below my collarbone on both sides. I have a huge family history of automimmune diseases....what do you think might be causing this, please? I find lots of things that talk about above collarbone...but mine is slightly below. Thanks

Hi, Auto immune disease is not related to swelling under collar bones on both sides.They can neither be fluid packets. They can mostly be due to fat deposition,& this can be common for a family. The position & placement of body parts,may have slight deviation from normal,it's a personal deviation & does not matter much. Thanks.
