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.
