Suggest Remedy For Hard Lump On Right Collar Bone

I have a hard lump on the right collarbone near the throat area. It has been there a while, but I think it has very slowly gotten more noticeable. I recall mentioning it to my doc who was unconcerned -but this was a while back. It is not sore unless I press on it. Should I be concerned?

hi.

you could request for an x-ray or a ct-scan for confirmation if there is really a lesion on the said area. it could be a simple cyst, a bony prominence, or some other thing. a physical examination by your doctor will be of great of help.

good day!!
