Suggest Treatment For Lumps On The Rib Cage And Abdomen

Hard lump on the left rib cage and some lumps in the abdomen area and some lumps on the low back. Had the low back ones checked years ago and were told they were lipomas. No weight loss or fevers just a feeling of a fullness in abdomen area.. Some pea sized lumps on my sides that are painful if pressed upon.

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi.
All the limps you described look to be lipomas.
The best way to get the treatment is surgery only. There is no medicinal treatment for these.
IT i s better to get operated the following:
*those on the pressure area like back
*on joints
* going inside the muscles.
* not looking good - unsighty.
