What Causes Large, Soft, Painless Lump Above Collar Bone?

I just noticed a large, soft, painless lump above my right collar bone close to my neck. It really freaks me out I never noticed before until today and i am having a bad panic attack now because of it. I'm a young 23 year old female should this be something I should be worried about? Could it be serious?

Hi,
Your description of it would suggest to me that it is not serious. However, I would advise you to have it examined by a doctor for your own reassurance.
