Weird feeling lump

Hi there I’m probably being silly but I have severe health anxiety and today whilst putting on sun cream I came across this lump around my collarbone. It’s only on the left collarbone. When I run over it, it kind of feels like it’s moving or popping. It’s tiny, doesn’t hurt and I’m concerned it’s cancer. My mother died from breast cancer and her first symptom was a lump so I think I’m just panicking because it’s a lump. I’m currently on holiday so can’t phone gp until I’m back Friday. Any advice?

    I'm sorry to hear that you've recently discovered a lump. It's understandable that you may feel anxious about this. 

    We recommend that anyone who finds a new lump or has concerns about an existing lump gets it checked by their GP so hopefully you will be able to arrange an appointment when you're home. 

    Best wishes,
