Suggest Treatment For A Painless Lump Near The Waistline

I have a spongy golf ball size lump near my waistline on the right side... It is painless, soft, smells sour and the colour is same as skin colour... It has been there for quite long and the size might have increased very very slowly... what should I do?

Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having growing lipoma on the site.
Nothing to worry.
If size increases, consult surgeon and get diagnosed.
If lipoma is there, go for removal.
Ok and take care.
