I have what the family doctor called a fatty tumor on my back .it it located over the scaitic nerve, and when it swells it puts pressure on that nerve and makes it painful to move that leg.then it burst through to another cell and the pain goes away,however the tumor is larger. Should it not be removed???

Hi,
Thanks for query,
It seems that you might have chronic abscess on the back or have lipoma or infected cyst.
First get it diagnosed proper and decide the line of treatment.
Consult orthopedic and get physically examined.
Ok and bye.
