As per your complaint of fatty tumor is so called LIPOMA. As it is a fatty tissue it is not a mattern of concern till it increase in size or get painful.
Lipoma require surgical resection when it causes pain or hurts you, otherwise nothing to do with it.
So if it hurts you than consult any good surgeon and he will advise you further.
Get well soon.
