Hi.
Yes multiple lumps at different sites can most probably be due to lipoms as you have already been told.
If any of such lipoma gets inflamed, it indicates the need to undergo investigations like ultrasonography , FNAC and ultimately excision for final diagnosis.
It is already at the pressure areas, one of the indications for removal of such lumps.
It would be wise to get other lumps at legs also be diagnosed by ultrasonography and FNAC at least. If there is a doubt these too can be excised .
