I posted yesterday that I have found a gland in the hollow of my right collarbone and am scared out of my mind.

I went to he docwho had a feel and said yes there is something there and its about 4mm in size and not to worry.

Well normally that would be fine as I have had glands come up over the years and not worried but this one is in the collarbone and EVERYTHING I hav eread in the past states that a node here is almost always related to cancer - I ahve not googled but this is from when I was googling for a gland my OH a while back.

Can anyone else feel any glands/lumps in the hollow of their collorbone?

I am already planning my funeral :(

I have got a gland there, everyone has. I went through the same thinking pattern some time ago. I'd imagine it's one of the list of worries fir us ha sufferers.

I don't think you have anything at all to worry about, honestly.

You only need to worry if it's very large and very hard. Mine gets a bit bigger from time to time but the majority of the time it's noticeable but only to me.
