I googled it. It's not cancer.

Bark Bark!
So, I noticed that a bone in my chest is distended last night. Kinda shrugged it off. Today it was a bit sore, not BAD sore, but if I touch it, it's KINDA sore... And coworker said "That is your clavicle!" However, VIA google, it looks like it COULD be the top rib. I'm not a doctor, so I dunno. However, after doing some research, it sounds like a cracked/fractured rib or clavicle.
I can't say that it is for sure, but... That's the closest idea I have until I can get in to see a doctor, but... I don't know what to make of it. There's minor discomfort, and only one of the three symptoms matched, so I don't THINK it is that, but that is the closest idea.
Either way, if it is, then crap, cause something will have to be done to correct it, and if it's not a crackedfractured rib or clavicle, then I dunno what and I hope it goes away, but... It is almost like someone just popped the bone forward, and it is SLIGHTLY visible at a glance, but otherwise it is only noticeable if touched, cause it's the ONE that stands out.
*shrug* Hope it's not bad, and that it somehow fixes itself.

I did, however, go to get checked out, and the doc said that it was fine, just some condition that is essentially inflammation of the rib or something of the sort. Ibuprofen for pain if it should get too bad, but it should clear up in a week.
It days the cause is heavy lifting and exertion, but the heaviest things I lift are 8lb ice buckets at work, and trash bags. Still at a loss as to the cause, but... I know it is not cracked or fractured, so that is a plus.
