Hi everyone I wonder if someone can shed some light on this. In the dip part between neck and collarbone if i lightly run my finger over the area I can feel a flat kind of bump very small, on the skin it is totally invisible I cannot see anythimg there's no redness no pain. Its not under the skin like a lymph node would be its on the skin because when i stretch the skin it moves with it like a pimple would I have no pain in it at all. I am really scared this is the start of skin cancer! Its so hard to explain how it feels but it not a lump.
Has anyone else had one of these? Or can anyone help me out im not feeling great about it. :(

hey did you see anyone about this yet?

it may put your mind at ease- if they tell you, it's nothing to worry about.. it's okay.

The human body is filled with lumps, bumps, freckles, moles and other things. After all, we're not made of porcelain and we're asymmetric by nature.

You're hyper-focused on yourself and it's a hallmark behavior of HA. At your age, it's highly unlikely to be anything sinister.

Positive thoughts

No I didnt see anyone yet and I dont intend to unless it becomes sore and bigger because I am trying not to fuel my anxiety by making appointments. Thanks for your reply.

Fishmanpa you are right I am totally focused on my body at the moment my HA is sky high its tiring me out. I know it will probably just be nothing and like you say we are asymmetrical but i cant help but have that doubt in the back of my mind.

Should I just leave it be? I dont think its worth a visit to the DR just yet. Thank you.
