How Can Painful Lipomas In The Armpit Be Treated?

Hi, My husband has multiple lipomas, he just had one removed, but he has them under his armpit`s,and they are hurting him. We have some good Dr.`s but most of them won`t do anything for him. He has fallen,(he has type 2 Diabeties and has it under control ) .When he has fallen,I`ve seen that he stops him self with his arms and knees. I do understand that trauma to the sites I mentioned,can cause these tumers. But how can he have them removed,they are growing... they aren`t small, they have been growing for the last 15yrs. He is 67, and is strong willed, also is there liposuction avaible?
