A member asked:

Can you tell me how i could treat my diabetic lipohypertrophy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Can be difficult: Localized lipohypertrophy typically results from injecting insulin into the same area repeatedly. Some ways to avoid this is by rotating sites, using new analog insulins, changing needles frequently. Good luck
