Hi,

The fluttery spot you feel flopping around when you are relaxed in the evening is possible fat tissue (we call it lipoma). That's why your doctor was not worried either offered any advice.

To make you feel at peace, run ultrasound of the soft tissues.

We usually do not offer removal unless for esthetical purpose or if you start feeling pain. In either case, no serious problem can occur.

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

Regards,
