Lipoma
Lipoma is a common benign tumor that develops from fat cells. It usually appears as a soft, rubbery lump under the skin. Lipomas are typically painless and slow-growing, and they can occur in various parts of the body, including the neck, shoulders, arms, and thighs. Treatment for lipomas is generally not necessary unless they cause discomfort, interfere with movement, or affect one’s appearance. Surgical removal is a common treatment option for symptomatic or bothersome lipomas. The procedure involves making a small incision and removing the tumor. Lipomas rarely recur after complete removal. However, it is important to consult a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis and personalized treatment recommendations for lipomas.
