Lipoma: Lipomas are soft lumps that feel like little nodules of fat and occur under the skin. They usually move and dont usually hurt. They dont go away and are nothing to worry about. If the lump is tender or warm or draining then get it looked at. You should have this looked at to make sure that is what this is. There are other things it could be.
