A member asked:
G.i doc found a lipoma tumor on the right sigma colon ... im in pain they say its about an inch and a half. any worries for my surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Consider removal: Any growth in the colon if it is growing or causing pain should be removed by a surgeon. Surgery is not all that difficult or complicated...so go for it.
