Hi,

Thanks for your question.

I want to know presence of any symptoms like-
- Cough, cold, breathing difficulty.
- Fever.
- Weight loss.
- Decreased apatite.
- Habits like smoking.

There may be possibility of swelling arising from supraclavicular lymph-node or rarely from ribs (it is unlikely).

I would like to advise you to consult your doctor for detailed clinical examiantion.

Following investigations may be advisable to confirm diagnosis and appropriate treatment.
- Complete blood count.
- ESR, CRP.
- Chest xray.
- Ultrasound of local area and abdomen and pelvis.
- CT scan of chest.
- Liver and Renal function test.

Hope this helps you, is so do vote as helpful.
