Thank you for sharing your question and experience and I am sorry that this has caused you to be concerned. There are numerous lymph nodes within the armpit, often sacrificed for diagnostic purposes in cases of breast cancer and other malignancies. They can resemble the same tissue quality a...
Hello, is your lipoma something you can see and feel on your abdomen. If so, then it will have no impact on vaginal delivery. A vaginal delivery will be out of the question if the lipoma is on the uterus. Once the uterus is not involved, a vaginal delivery should be ok. Set up a consult with a...
