A member asked:
I have limpoma what should i do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Usually nothing: Lipomas are benign fatty growths, and they are very common. They are usually completely meaningless. Occasionally they are removed. Reasons to remove a lipoma is if it is clearly growing or bothering the patient--it sits in a location where it rubs against clothing etc. Lipomas that just sit there can be safely left along.
