injured my clavicle when moving large couch in April. Couldn't lift my head constant burning pain in back of neck. Things improved after wearing homemade sling. Bump was almost gone for a week, after 9weeks! After sweeping around house and sleeping for awhile on my right side, bump is back, size of golf ball. I have my sling on and am taking anti inflammatories. Cold compresses.
I had seen a Dr a week after the 1st incident. x ray and blood test showed nothing. What should I do now? How should I sleep?

Well, I suppose you should go back to wearing the sling again. I don’t understand how come x-rays didn’t show a break when a lump on the bone is almost always a sign on a broken bone. At least it was in my case. All of the symptoms you mentioned you had at first, indicate broken collar bone.
When I broke my clavicle I had to wear a ling for a few days only and then some days after I started with some minor exercises.
I would see a doc again and ask what it could be. I refrained from any physical activities for six weeks, to make sure my bone healed. Have you been active during the healing period? You should see a doc again and ask what to do, if you could do the exercises.
If it hurts to sleep in your bed, try sleeping in a sitting position in an armchair or something with the support on.
