What Could Swollen Lumps On Collar Bone Suggest?

I noticed swelling including a lump and pea sized growth, that somewhat moves around, is tender to touch in the area above my right collar bone and lower front neck. I have been very tired lately but the could be due to other factors. I just noticed it tonight and can be visible if I turn my neck slightly. What could be going on?

it is probably a lymph node and could be due to some infection and in cases of elderly sign of some serious disease like tuberculosis or malignancy!

Please go for an FNAC test to relieve your tension.
