What Causes Lipoma On Chest?

Hi My 4yr old daughter has developed a lipoma on her chest - just above her rib cage. this has just shown up out of the blue, is it ok...... my husband has one on his wrist. It does not seem to effect her in any way and she says its not sore. Is this normal?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern for your daughter from the history given here I could say that this may not be Lipoma because looking to age of your daughter this is very unlikely you better get it examine clinically, in my opinion it is important to get done the scanning of the lesion this would clear the picture, hope this information helps you have nice day.
