What Causes Bruise Like Pain In Neck Above Left Side Collar Bone?

Dear doctor, For the past 3 weeks, I have been experiencing some bruise-like pain when I gently pressed the base area of my neck just above my left side collar bone. The condition comes n goes at times. Some days, I feel the area just below my left jaw hurts as well. I do not feel its a sore throat and have no other symptoms. I don t see a lump or any enlargement of my neck. What I am worried is whether this could be caused by my previous condition - I used to have hyperthyroid and hypothyroid before but it had been stabilised over a yr. So I am not sure if this is a relapse. I don t feel stressed or anxious at all. Hope to hear your advice. Thanks a lot!
