The doctor just diagnosed me with a lipoma and recommend that I see a surgeon. The location is my leg close to the shin area about the middle. My question is I think one is about the size of a quarter the other smaller is this an in office procedure or is it a more complicated? Also, what is the recovery time for something like this? Will I still be able to workout I usually workout everyday will there be limitations at the gym? What is the process and will I have to have stiches? Thanks!
