Hello, Presence of swelling which is of cosmetic concern or causing any functional impairment are the usual indications to go for a fnac( fine needle aspiration cytology). Getting into the kind of description regarding your complaints, fat distribution is symmetric and not an obvious swelling, nor is it symptomatic. So you need worry as to the presence of fat unless it is of any concern. Hope I have clarified your doubts. Any more queries do get back to me. Best regards.
