Is exercise make lipoma larger/bigger than its present size?

The growth rate of a lipoma is usually independent of exercise or diet. Lipomas are tumors that act independently of their host. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles

Thank you for your question.  Lipomas tend to grow independently of exercise, and if they begin to interfere with your exercise regimen, they can be removed with a small procedure.  Hope this helps. 

Exercise should not affect the size of a lipoma.  It should get neither larger or smaller with physical activity.  

Thank you for your question. No, exercise will not make a lipoma bigger. These tend to slowly enlarge all by themselves and are not related to activity level or body weight. They are usually easily removed.

No.  Lipomas are benign growths of fatty tissue (along with some connective tissue and to a greater or lesser extent some blood vessels).   They do not respond to exercise.However, they are often located within muscular tissue, particularly between some normal, gliding planes of muscle.  Exercise can, therefore, change their appearance and bring them closer to the surface.There are many masses that are not lipomas, so someone with a mass should see his or her MD to have it assessed.I hope that this helps and good luck,Dr. Alan EnglerMember of #RealSelf100@RealSelf
