Suggest Remedy For Lumps In Children
My 2 year old nephew gets these large lumps in different spots of his body. They're mostly on his scalp, and they appear on his arms, legs and he recently got one on his feet. Do you know what this could be? I don't know if it matters, but he has the sickle cell anemia trait.

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. He may have multiple lipomatosis or neurofibromatosis. It has no relation with sickle cell trait. He should go for fine needle aspiration cytology or biopsy of one lump. Then he should take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
