General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Protrusion of clavicle happens due to clavicle dislocation. It is generally caused due to weakness in the ligament or mild trauma in old age. You need to consult Orthopedic Surgeon to clinically assess and manage it based on the degree of damage caused. Kindly get it done at the earliest.
Hope the information provided would be useful.
All the best.
