lump on top of shoulder?

[3sweeties]

I discoverd a small, soft. lump on the top of my shoulder between the two bones. It kind of moves around. What could this be.

Does it maybe feel like cartilage? I have a random peice of cartilage (actually, the doc referred to it as "grissle") in the "V" in my collar bone. If so, it's nothing to worry about.

Some sort of bursal enlargement?

a cyst??

These answers make me feel better. :) This shoulder has always been a little achy.

...could be a lipoma, which is a localized growth of fat tissue. They can pop up anywhere. They're pretty much harmless but to get rid of it you have to have it removed.
Check with your doc to find out for sure.
