Lipomas are benign, slow-growing fatty tumors typically found under the skin. Composed of adipose tissue, these soft, movable lumps are generally harmless. Though painless, they can cause discomfort if they press on nerves or organs. Lipomas are common in middle-aged adults, with a genetic predisposition. Diagnostic tools include physical examination and imaging, as biopsy isn’t usually necessary. Treatment is often unnecessary unless for cosmetic reasons or if the lipoma causes symptoms. Surgery is the primary method of removal. Despite their non-cancerous nature, consultation with a healthcare professional is vital for proper evaluation and management of lipomas. #hospital #pune #pcmc #chinchwad #health #lipoma #lipomaremoval #lipomatreatment #generalsurgery #lipomasymptoms #lipomacystremoval #lipomasurgery #lipomacyst #generalsurgeon
