I'm 29 years old male and I discovered that I have a Lipoma. It's about 1.5 in diameter, movable and soft. I don't think it's fast growing. The doctor recommended that I just leave it out. I do know that Liposarcoma can mimic a Lipoma and the only real way to know is to remove it and do a biopsy. I also know that it's exceedingly rare according to some doctors. Is there a reason why doctors recommend not to remove Lipomas when the risk that it could be something deadlier is possible?
First lipoma in my back but now its all over in my body I am 28years I have 2 kids I got marry in 19 I have uncountable lipomas in my whole body I belong to simple and middle class family I showed my lipomas to some doctors they told me that lipomas is nothing serious disease but now I feel pain in my arms lipoma but the prblm is that I could not express my pain bz no.

I am a 25 year old female, I've had this lipona bump for about 10 years now but has grown significantly in the last 4. Its starting to get in the way of daily activity (lifting arm over hear, shaving left armpit, sharp neck pain) I have health insurance but no primary care doctor and was wondering if I can go to urgent care to get this removed.
Hello! I have a hard lump under the skin on the back of my thigh. The lump is about the size of a chickpea, maybe slightly bigger, the skin above it is not discolored. I was told that it could be a lipoma. On an ultrasound it was visible, but when I had an MRI done, it was completely invisible. Does that exclude a lipoma? What else could it be? What kind of tissue is invisible on an MRI? What kind of lump should be removed? Thank you! (I'm female, late 20's, BMI 21)
6 weeks ago, I had over a dozen lipomas removed (legs, abdomen, back, arms). Since then, Ive noticed about a half dozen new (small) lipomas that are new. It is *not* me noticing lipomas that were already there for the first time. There are another half dozen that I knew about. I am in my 30s and my sister had also had a few removed, suggesting hyperfamilial lipoma (sp?)
The lipoma is located where my butt meets my lower back. The doctor said I would have an indentation for forever. After research online I saw that fat grafting could be an option. I'm in the process of losing weight (getting engaged soon) and want to know if the weight loss (it would be atleast 75 lbs) and massaging the area could minimize the indentation?
I'm 27 years old and I did liposuction 4 years ago and my legs still annoying me. This shape starts to appear in my legs since I was 16 Those cellulite or lipedema isn't painful. I didn't feel any pain in my legs. If I have lipedema what should I do because I already did liposuction, and do exercises helpful in my case, thanks.
The past year Ive noticed a lump on my jawline. I saw my Dr about 6 months ago, she said its likely uneven fat distribution. Im 28, 5ft 7 and 120lbs and havent gained any weight. It feels like a squishy sack underneath, not large or hard etc. Its really knocking my confidence, its not like it on the other side, the other side it just straight when I put my head to the side. Thanks in advance.
I'm 25 years old and just got diagnosed with multiple lipomas in my mid to lower back. They are generally small right now, and only cause a little pain here and there. I have noticed most form on my hip bone, and one or two are next to my spine. Should I have these removed now? How quickly do they grow? Do they always get bigger? I don't want scarring, nor do I want them to start showing! Also, will I get lipomas elsewhere on my body? Please help!
Hi i suffer from multiple angiolipomas im 32 and have had over 30 removed. Ill be going in again soon to get more removed. They are very painful once they get larger and more tender to touch. Mostly in my upper legs and a couple in my arms. Im worried of the pain they cause and how many im getting and im the only one in my family that suffers from this. Thank you. Teigan.
