Hello i am 22 and i have Lipoma inbetween my sholder blades the doctor says it is very large and deep he is doing a MRI to confirm how deep it is. He has already said it will be a Sugary i would like to know how long the recovery time is? he is not sure if it is as deep as the muscle so could someone please tell me the recovery times for both, if its in the fat tissue how long? and if it in the Muscle how long? i have a toddler aswel so how long befor i can pick her up? Thank you
These fatty tumors should be evaluated by MRI to idetify how deep it is located. This is on your back which is always an akward place to have surgery because you will need help to care for it. Larger amounts of tissue removal result in spaceds that fluid tends to build up in requiring a drain. No one likes drains. The point is not to have any problems. It should not be a surgery that keeps you from doing your normal activities.
i have been diagnosed with a lipoma on my right lower leg, just above the ankle. my whole leg is sore right up to the knee. the actual bump on the leg is not sore. was this a correct diagnosis?
Lipomas of the the lower leg are not common. It this hurst and gives you the feelins of electrical shocks it is not a lipoma most likely. The diagnostic test that maybee most helpful in this situation is an MRI.
i would like to know if i should have lipoma located in the muscle of my arm removed it hurt off and on and my surgeron says since were it is located i would have to have surgery i am very afraid to have this done could you please help.is their any other way or procedure that can be done?
Any intramuscular lipoma should be imaged with an MRI. This is best done at a center that has surgical oncologists, musculoskeltal oncologists, and plastic and reconstructive surgeons who work togehter in a multidisciplinary fashion
