What Causes Inflammation In My Right Collar Bone?

My right cokkar bone is inflamed. It's not painful though it gets a little sore if I do heavy work in the home or yard. my right hand also hurts with heavy work. I noticed the inflamation in the collar bone about 3 weeks back when i hd some house guests & was working more more than usual. What might it be?

Hi
For no reasons simply the collar bone cannot be inflamed,
There could be a possible reason like trauma, compression, bone or muscle injury, ot infection.
Please get an xray chest done to rule out any problems.and visit an orthopaedic surgeon.
Take care
