Lipomas

Lipomas are fatty tissues that develop under the skin. They are commonly found on the neck, shoulder, forearm, arms, and thighs. As lipomas are benign tumours, they do not pose immediate health risks.

Most patients who remove their lipomas usually do it because the lipoma continues to grow, or they may want it removed for aesthetic reasons. In some cases, a lipoma can even cause pain when they compress a nerve.

Remember, a lipoma does not go away on its own.

If you have a skin lump that is bothering you, seek professional advice to assess if what you are experiencing is an emergency.
