Thanks for consulting. I have carefully worked through your case, and I can realize your health worries. Being your physician, I assure you not to worry as I will take care all of your medical concerns.

for pain you can take diclofenac. and you may need surgical excision of the lipoma. i will agree with your doctor advice.
lipoma is benign tumor. it does not cause much of a problem. but when it causes pressure effect like compression oft he nerve the need to be surgically removed.

go ahead with your docotor advice.
the surgery is a minor one and you can be back to normal activity from next day.

Hope it helps. If you need further, detailed and quick assistance related to any health issues in future, feel free to 'ask me a question' directly from my profile.

Have a wonderful time ahead.
