A member asked:
Psoriasis and lipoma, are these two conditions related?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Both are extremely common. The molecular basis of each is being worked out and there's no relationship. Lipomas are easy to remove; psoriasis may be trivial or a serious management problem.

I have two lipomas in my lower back one at right and one at left, they are painful plus i feel pain in my ribss too recently, what should I do ?
How hard can lipomas be? I have two 5cm lumps midthigh harder than the fat around them and don't really feel rubbery Have been growing slowly & changing texture. Near-surface & do not move easily but will when the fat underneath moves. Worth Concern?
I have psoriasis and I'm only 20. I also have had episodes of V Tach. Could there be a link between these two?
Ok, so it wouldn't be critical to get a lipoma lump removed? is there anyway I myself could tell the two apart?
