General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hello! Welcome to HCM.
This seems to be a lipoma as your surgeon said.
Lipoma is a benign lump of fatty tissue.
An asymptomatic lipoma i.e. not causing any trouble, need not be removed.
And yes, for cosmetic purpose, in my clinic, I have excised many such lipomas under local anaesthesia.
If there is any doubt about diagnosis on clinical examination, I advise FNAC - fine needle aspiration cytology for confirmation of diagnosis.
Hope this helps.
Wish you healthy life.
Thanks.
Regards.
