I was having two small cysts ( 1 cm lipoma) on both sides of my abdomen (almost symmetrical). Now I feel a third one on the right , near by the other. First two was checked by a doctor by ultrasonograph. And the doctor said there is nothing to be afraid of . But bow I am scared because of the third one. I would be happy if you could answer.
Hi! Good afternoon. I am Chat Doctor answering your query. From your history, if these are confirmed to be lipoma by FNAC, there is nothing to worry. These are simple deposits of fatty tissue at random places, which are commonly seen. They are harmless excepting for a cosmetic problem or when they cause pressure effects somewhere. However, if FNAC has not been done, I would definitely recommend a FNAC (fine needle aspiration cytology) for a confirmed cytological diagnosis for appropriate opinion and management. So there is nothing to be scared of at present. I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts. Thanks for choosing Chat Doctor to clear doubts on your health problems. I wish you an early recovery. Chat Doctor.
