Lipoma: It is probably a lipoma but that can only be confirmed by physical examination.A lipoma is a growth of fat cells in a thin, fibrous capsule usually found just below the skin. Lipomas are found most often on the torso, neck, upper thighs, upper arms, and forearms but they can occur almost anywhere and are non cancerous.Consult your physician to confirm the diagnosis of lipoma.
