Hi,

Your symptoms seem to be related to lipoma. A lipoma is a lump under the skin that occurs due to an overgrowth of fat cells. In case of pain or complication I recommend consulting a surgeon for further evaluation.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi,
