Lipoma: When a Soft Fatty Lump Develops Under the Skin •Lipoma is a common, non-cancerous growth made up of fat tissue that develops just under the skin. •It usually appears as a soft, smooth, and movable lump and can occur anywhere on the body, most commonly on the neck, shoulders, back, or arms. Lipomas grow slowly and are generally harmless.•Symptoms include a soft, painless lump that can be easily moved under the skin with gentle pressure.• It is usually not associated with redness or inflammation.• In most cases, lipomas do not cause discomfort, but larger ones may press on nearby tissues and cause mild pain.•Lipomas do not require treatment unless they become painful, increase in size, or cause cosmetic concerns. •Treatment involves simple surgical removal, which is usually quick and safe.•At Paavai Eye & Skin Care Hospital, Salem, we provide proper evaluation and safe removal of lipomas with minimal discomfort. •Early consultation helps ensure accurate diagnosis and peace of mind.#Lipoma #SkinCare #HealthySkin #Dermatology ✨
