Detailed Answer:
Dear Patient,
A lipoma is a harmless thing! There is absolutely no reason to worry. If you press on it too much it might cause soreness, so please stop doing that.
If chest x ray is clear that is also a good sign.
If you have any further doubts/ clarifications, you may get back to me.
Best regards
