A lipoma is a growth of fat cells in a thin, fibrous capsule. Lipomas are usually just below the skin, most often on the head, neck, hands and underarms, but they can occur almost anywhere in the body. Although they are not dangerous, they can be annoying for many people.
Specialists do not know the main reason for lipoma development, but modern science says they are associated with genetics, obesity or cholesterol.
The fatty tissue of a lipoma may be the body's way of trying to get rid of unwanted material such as toxins or wastes. Some believe that a lipoma is formed because the body is unbalanced and can not treat unwanted material through normal channels such as the kidneys or liver. The skin is the largest organ of the body, so the body can use it to try to release the waste through the skin, causing a noticeable fat mass under the skin.
What are the symptoms of a lipoma?
Lipomas are usually small, about 1-3 cm in size, and they can be felt under the skin. They have a soft and rubbery consistency. They can stay the same size or grow slowly over the years. They usually do not cause pain, but the most embarrassing symptom is that the location or size may make them noticeable to others, causing discomfort or self-esteem problems in those who have them.
Lipomas can occur in all age groups, but most often in men and women of middle age. And since they are painless, lipomas are usually not treated. In the event that they become extremely troublesome, they can be removed by a laser or painful doctor or medication.
