Suggest Treatment For Lipoma

I have a recent outbreak of lipomas. I have had a second opinion and both were the same. My grandpa and mother also have had multiple lipomas in their lifetimes that have caused numerous problems. My question is that the lipomas and connecting tissue tend to burn and ache on occasion. especially when they first started. I am worried it is something more like dercum s?

Orthopaedic Surgeon, Joint Replacement 's  Response
hello, I have studied your case and I can assure you that lipoma never cause pain unless there is pressure on the nerve or there is some nerve tissue also there in the tumour it self. so it is better to show it to doctor and get it examined. if there is nerve tissue than it needs excision.
