Hello Sir, I have 6-7 lipomas in my hand, some is approx 1 inches and some are small. these are not painful but these looks odd in my hand. I am a IT professional, and my job is to sit on a chair for whole day... Could you please advise me to treat this, and to whom i should consult for this. Thanks & Regards, Ashutosh Gupta YYYY@YYYY

Hi Ashutosh,
I have gone through your medical history carefully and understood your concerns.
Usually, the final treatment of lipomas is surgical removal. If they are not infected neither giving pain, it is not advised to remove them. However, if their presence is altering your daily activities especially when it comes to working and typing, then, you can remove them.
Discuss it further with general surgeon to schedule intervention.
All the best!
