Answer: Lipoma removal recovery, is it normal to feel a shocking sensation on my back?
Seroma formation can occur after surgical lipoma removal. I tend to use small scars and see patients within a few days of the procedure. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian#Realself100 Surgeon
A drain may be required to address recurrent seroma formation from a lipoma surgery. SwellX tablets may also help.Best, Dr. Karamanoukian#Realself100 Surgeon
