A member asked:
What causes fat lymphomas, how do you get rid of them without surgery and how to prevent getting more?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lipomas?: If you are talking about lipomas, the benign fatty tumors that some people get, then we are not sure what causes them. There is no way to get rid of them without surgery and unfortunately they often come back when they are removed. We also do not know of a way to prevent you from getting more of them.
