Hi. I am a 42 year old female. I am relatively healthy. I noticed a small lump right above my collarbone in late May. It is now the size of an egg. It is soft and not painful. But lately I have been super tired and feeling really run down. I had a neck CT last week and it was normal. Should I be concerned?
Hi, If there is a lump how can the CT be normal. In that case, it is most likely a Lipoma and you need not worry about it. You can get yourself examined by a Surgeon to be sure. If it is a Lipoma then nothing needs to be done. It can be removed by a simple operation if you so wish otherwise you can leave it alone and it will not lead to any problems. Take care, Dr Rishi, New Delhi, India.
