Noticed a movable collarbone lump during my cycle, has anyone else?

Hi all,
During my most recent cycle I had what I think is a lymph node by my collar bone become noticeable.
It’s not visible but I can feel it when feeling around for it. Feels soft and movable.
I did notice I felt extra puffy and inflamed this time around, and I’ve definitely not been able to stop checking it through out the day since finding it so I think I’ve inflamed the area.
Just wondering if anyone else has had a similar thing ?

I think lymph nodes can flare up occasionally but I would 100 percent call GP today and get it checked out. Xx

I’ve just see your other post - if youve had it for 10 days please see GP today. Even if it’s just an infected lymph node you’ll need antibiotics. They never mind checking this kind of thing and it’ll put your mind at rest instead of worrying constantly.

Thank you, I will try today but it’s never easy to get an appointment here. (I’m in Canada ) Just worried!!
