Im nervous about having lipoma surgery on scalp (optional I know). But it hurts. Scared of excessive bleeding. I am considering surgical removal by a plastic surgeon - on the scalp (radiologist report says its a lipoma, maybe its a hard mass of something else) - Seen many YouTube clips for lipoma surgery and it looks like a lot of bleeding - scared of having blood transfusion or stroke or vessel being cut. Are antibiotics absolutely needed after lipoma surgery, as I thought they only got bacterial infections. Lipoma size is 3.1cm x 0.4cm I think
I had an attempted Lipoma Removal, that didnt go to plan.. My Doctor Is experienced in doing minor surgery Eg cyst/lipoma removal etc.. He stopped the lipoma removal and stitched me back up removing Little he said(Im assuming the only bits were for biopsy).. He said he had concerns about my excessive bleeding during lipoma surgery and said I need to have blood tests to determine why this might be happening.. So Im a bit worried now, about me haveing excessive bleeding etc..
I had lipoma surgery on the 12th of April. On the 22 of April the 6 stitches were removed. On my right foot just beside the ankle. They put on steri strips after stitch removal and after surgery they told me to continue with normal activities.
I have a growth now for over 10 years. When I went to the doctor he told me it was a cyst and that I should not worry about it unless it hurts. . I have 2 from trauma to my ribs from my brother jabbing/prodding me unexpectedly; repeatedly when I was 15. Each started where the lowest rib begin and has spread laterally but adjacent to the lowest ribs on each side so they are large and cause discomfort. I'm concerned with bleeding as I do not accept blood should I be worried about death?
i had a lipoma(75cm) surgery in my triceps area. it was healing quite well for 9 days suddenly blood started leaking from wound since last 3 days, although i don't have any pain or swelling.
