Key factors: Some key considerations: Are they increasing in size? Are they causing pain? Are the numbersof lumps increasing? Do you have any other concerning symptoms such as loss of appetite, fever, chills, shortness of breath, weight loss, etc. If the answers to all of these questions is "no", then you likely can simply observe these lumps. Seek medical attention if anything changes. An MRI/CT could help.
