If pain lasts longer than a few days and does not abate, it’s time to call the doctor.πŸ’•

It is very common for Myeloma to develop in the clavicle. It broke mine and was discovered during my initial PET scan.

I think any prolonged unusual feeling or pain calls for an immediate visit to your doctor in order to prevent complications.

Talk to your doctor. My right arm broke because of MM. While in ER it was discovered that I had a tumor on my arm. I now have a plate with cement and screws in that arm. Thus my journey with MM began. Two months later doctors said my left arm was going to break and surgery was scheduled. My arm broke during surgery and a rod was inserted. MM can attack any part of the skeletal system. I only had one small spot on my spine and radiation took care of it.

Hello Ruth.
I have not experienced shoulder and clavicle pain. I mostly experience lower back pain. I think you should see your doctor if this was not common before.
