Are Multiple Cysts Under The Skin On Body A Cause For Concern?

Hi I am 24 years old and I have multiple lumps under my skin that are not visable but I can feel them when I touch my body. I have some on my thighs one on my back and butt and one on my arm. I went to a doctor a while back and he examined a few and told me they were cyst and to not worry but they don t all feel the same. Any insight??

Hi,

Based on the history you have shared, these can be collection of data or called lipoma and are benign. For reassurance ultrasound of any such swelling and fine needle aspiration cytology may be helpful to rule any other complication.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
