Suggest Treatment For Lipoma
I was diagnosed with a Lipoma below my right rib cage over my liver several years ago. In the past year it has become more pronounced and in the past three days I have noticed that if I push on it ,,,it makes a gurgling sound. Is that normal...it has never happened before, It had become more solid and now it is like a balloon full of liquid.

hi.
it is best if you consult with a doctor, preferably a general surgeon, for your lipoma, especially if it's increasing in size and starts to bother you. definitve treatment is surgical excision with antibiotic treatment for a week.
hope this helps.
good day!!
