General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi! Good evening Rahul. I am Dr Shareef answering your query. Although it requires a physical clinical assessement of the lumps, from the history it seems that you have got multple lipomas on your body, which in fact are accumulation of fatty tissue. However, mostly they are benign and harmless, excepting for cosmetic concerns and pain at times by the persons affected. If in doubt, one of the lumps could be excised and sent for histopathology test. Till then, I would advise you for some anti inflammatory drug along with an proton pump inhibitor for a symptomatic relief.

I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.

Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. I wish you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
