Hello,
From the description you gave, my first diagnosis is a lipoma.
Lipomas can appear as solitary nodules or in groups.
Most lipomas are less than 5 cm in diameter and have no symptoms, but they can cause pain when they compress nerves.
Lipomas are not removed unless there is a cosmetic concern, a compression of surrounding structures or an uncertain diagnosis.
Lipomas generally do not infiltrate into surrounding tissue so they can be removed easily by excision.
There are alternatives to standard excision. One is to manually squeeze the lipoma through a small incision.
Liposuction-assisted lipectomy also can be used to remove large lipomas with minimal scarring. Lipotherapy is another option.
In this, a fast dissolving drug called deoxycholic acid (Kybella) is injected directly into the lipoma, leaving no scarring.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr AJEET SINGH, General & Family Physician
