hi
welcome to HealthcareMagic
from the description it seems that you are having multiform neurofibromas
this is a benign condition and affects many
no medicines available not related to diets
if some are large and unsighty surgical removal is the answer
better to forget it and not to worry

General Surgeon Dr. Swapnendu Sekhar Ghosh's  Response
from the description it seems they are multiple neuro fibromas only
neuro fibromas may be of several types
your type is more common and usually not associated with internal problems and they are not serious
hope you already consulted surgeon
if not please get a surgical consultation an be sure

Dermatologist Dr. Gaurang Krishna's  Response
I really do not think these are neurofibromas. Dear Dr Ghosh, what is there in the patient's description that made you think it is a neurofibroma? With all due respect neurofibromatosis is not a common disorder at all. Please tell me what are the different types of neurofibroms ( which are very common) and which are felt as lumps under the skin. I will be more than happy to know a reference for this. I am willing to learn from you.

welcome to health care magic. I do not think that you have neurofibroms as they are associated with textural changes and most of the lesions are more OUTSIDE the skin than Inside. It is also associated with many internal problems and is a serious and rare problem. What you have is what we call LIPOMAS. they are basically localized fatty tissue collections. They are only of cosmetic importance. You can leave them alone if they are not bothering you. But incase you have pain or very unsightly, then you can go for surgical removal of individual lesions. No medicine is available for their removal or prevention.
