Hi Kailash.
Thanks for your query.
From the nice history you have provided of the multiple non-symptomatic lumps over abdomen and thigh, arm and waist, these look to be multiple Lipomas.
Nice to know that you do not take tobacco and are a Gym guy.

Kind of steps you should take ::
-Consult a General Surgeon, get a clinical evaluation and physical examination to get a diagnosis.
-Only FNAC is required.
-The best way is to get all of them removed for 2 reasons
1. You get all the lumps out of the body before they get slowly enlarged.
2. You get a certain diagnosis.

Do not worry- the other ways is to get the following lumps out of the bosy:
-Enlarging suddenly
-Become painful
-On joints
-In muscles.

Otherwise get a confirmed diagnosis and relax. Remember there are no medicines for such a condition, hence do not try anything.
