Swollen Chest And Collar Bone After D&C. Reason?
Hi I had a D&C little over 3 weeks ago and ever since then my collar bone has been very swollen and now my chest too . It almost feels as if there is fluid underneath . It doesn't hurt, but it is spreading . After the d&c was done and days after my chest really hurt in between my collar bones . I though it was from where they had stopped the tube. That pain went away and then I had the swelling .

Hi
It seems that while inserting endotracheal tube or for anesthesia, some injury happened and the fluid is accumulating in sub-cutaneous tissues. You need to see a surgeon for management.
