Should one be concerned with a soft tissue lump in the upper shoulder?

Answer:

Answer

Since you didn't specify in what area of the shoulder, I can only speak from my experience with a lump above the collar bone. As with any "new" lump, your best bet would be a have a MD check it out. I had a fair size lump above my left collar bone which turned out to be Hodgkins Lymphoma. So my advice is to see your MD. Good Luck, Kristin

Hi - my husband had a lump just above the collar bone which suddenly appeared. It was secondary cancer from a stomach tumour. Get it checked out. All the best.
