What Is The Small Hard Lump Below My Collarbone?
i have a small hard lump about 3 inches below my collarbone but not near the breast tissue. I am a 49 year old male who had cancer on my tonsil 5 years ago and had a neck disection with the removal of 14 lymph nodes and chemo and radiation. I had a bad cold a few weeks ago.

Hi.
Thanks for your query and good explanation.
Sorry to know about cancer of the tonsil and nice to know you have undergone treatment properly.
The lump you described does not looks to be due to secondaries of cancer.
This can a lipoma or a sebaceous cyst.
There are no lymph nodes in the area you have pointed out.
