Hi there, I m Nash, 35 year old Male. I have multiple lipomas on my body, couple of them on my right forearm, one on my left elbow and one on my right rib cage. They ve grown over the past 4 to 5 years from a tiny bit initially to almost half an inch in diameter now. They re under the skin and move easily but don t hurt when pressed. I want to get them removed surgically as most people have started noticing them, particularly the one on my fore arms. But I read somewhere that removing them surgically can cause outbreak of lipoma and they can spread to other parts of the body rapidly. Is that true?? After reading this i m in a big dilemma now. Kindly advice!! Thanks!!
