Hello ma'am and welcome.

What you are speaking about is a lipoma. These are usually harmless and unless they are bothersome or cause undesired symptoms they are not considered for treatment.

Options for treatment (only once accessed by a dermatologist) are:
-Surgery
-Liposuction
-Injection of steroids

Hope this helps.

Best wishes.
