Collarbone

[shadi05]

I'm an avid gym rat and lately have been having a slight annoying pain along the top of my right trapezius muscle (from the right side of my neck down to my shoulder). This annoying pain can sometimes travel up the right side of my neck and and onto the right side of my face if I begin agitating it. Well, last night I noticed that there is an ever slight protrusion on my right collar bone (right about where the collarbone meets the shoulder). You really can't see the protrusion if I just stand still relaxed but you can notice it when I start moving my right arm up and in a circular motion (this does not cause pain). I have full motion of my shoulder and this pain is not exacerbated when I'm in the gym with any movements. It's just sort of a constant annoying dull pain that becomes heightened if I 'pull' my shoulder downward. Could this be because the collar bone has been pulled slightly out of whack and is now impinging on a nerve ?

I compared both of my sides and noticed that I can feel the same 'connection' (collar bone to shoulder) on my left side but there is no protrusion. I'm a tad confused as to how this happened as I have not experienced any traumatic injuries.

Perhaps this is caused by muscular and/or structural imbalances in my body ? I notice that when I wear T-shirts the shirt wants to pull a certain way.

I wonder if the connective tissues between my collar bone and shoulder have become stretched somehow and the end of my collar bone is 'floating' slightly above where it should be.

If it helps the following picture is around where my bump is. However, my bump is nothing even remotely as horrific as the one pictured. My bump is very nearly undetectable while I'm standing relaxed, like I said, and is only visible when I begin moving my arm in a rotation.

Well, from what research I have done I might possibly have a Grade I AC Joint Separation Sprain.
