General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi ! Good evening. I am Dr Shareef answering your query. Your doctor might be right in re assuring you about the cyst around your left eye, which could be just a benign angular dermoid. In case these are multiple, like the ones on your right rib and might be at other places, the opinion goes towards multiple lipomas, again a benign lesion. The diagnosis could be made by clinical assessment along with some investigations if need be. So, I would suggest you to get these lumps assessed by a general surgeon for proper management.

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.
