I have this swelling on clavicle, however x ray is normal attached you can see.
There is no pain in clavicle or any other symptom
Just that I have pain in shoulder pain
Is this because of posture, I have a habit of slouching
However other clavicle seems normal
Should I get any other scan done.
Swelling looks like hard as if its just the bone that is popping out.

Hi,
It can be the cause of some improper lifting or posture which has disturbed your biomechanics of the particular joint. Consult a physiotherapist for readjusting the joint which will be done with some physical maneuvers. Later on, scapular stabilization exercises will surely help you.
Thank you..
