Brief Answer:
Considerations

Detailed Answer: XXXXXXX thank you for sending the question. It is possible that these particular lumps that you have appreciated may represent lipomas.

Lipomas are very common and are benign fatty tissue growths. I think you should see a doctor to get a good physical examination however and to also provide you with some reassurance.
I feel it is most likely that what you have experienced represents lipomas. Your doctor should be over to you for sure when he examined you.

Sincerely,

Dr. Galamaga
