Hi, I have Ankylosing Spondylitis and recently noticed a lump on my clavicle.  I thought it was a glad but it has gotten bigger.i know autoimmune diseases can do all kinds of fun stuff to the body.  Has anyone with AS ever experienced anything like this?

I went to the Dr and she referred my for an ultrasound and a chest X-ray.

    I have spondylitis too and I was thinking it could be new bone formation or maybe just a lipoma which isn’t serious.  Try not to worry and it sounds like your doc is on top of things!

    Get it checked you have lymph nodes there and if your on a biologic you know they are not good for you. Wishing the best ! Keep us updated !

    Thank you!  I’m not on biologics, hoping it’s nothing serious.  Saying my prayers.
