Hi so about a year ago I started lifting weights and losing a lot of weight at once, about 30-40 pounds in 6 months. But I noticed after a bit my right collar bone protrudes more than my left one. I also have my right hip higher and my right ribcage lower. The left side of my face also became more pulled down. All of this depressed me, as I felt all that hard work went to waste. Since I think I have quickly entered a sort of second stage of puberty my metabolism sped up and I grew taller, so my growth is not affected. Also usually there is not pain there, but I just did 20 pushups and I feel soreness there so I am not sure. I have been sitting mostly, and all that muscle built and mobility is gone so I'm not to sure what makes it sore. Also I generally have developed bad posture like nerd neck and rounded shoulders, so that probably exaggerates it. It would be much appreciated if someone could give me some steps to take. It has really affected my mental. Here are some pics.

Collar bone protrusion in a 14-year-old can be caused by a few different things. Here are a few possibilities:
-
Normal anatomy: The collar bone, also known as the clavicle, can naturally protrude slightly, especially during adolescence as the body undergoes growth and changes. In many cases, this is nothing to worry about and does not require treatment.
-
Posture: Poor posture can cause the collarbone to protrude, as the shoulders slump forward and the chest collapses inward. Encouraging good posture and strengthening the muscles around the shoulder blades can help correct this.
-
Injury: A fall or other injury to the shoulder or collarbone can cause a protrusion or bump to form.
-
Congenital abnormality: Rarely, a congenital abnormality or birth defect can cause the collarbone to protrude.
Have you got it checked with you doctor?
