Lipoma Homeopathy Treatment and Its Homeopathic Medicine
Definition:
Lipoma is a benign (non-cancerous) tumor that is made up of fat cells. It can occur in any tissue that contains fat but most commonly it occurs in the subcutaneous (beneath the skin) tissue.
Lipomas are soft, round, mobile, and doughy to feel. They are situated just below the skin and the overlying skin looks normal. They are more commonly observed on the back, extremities, and chest. Lipoma is more commonly observed in the age group of 40-60 years. Single Lipoma is more commonly seen in women and multiple Lipomas (Lipomatosis) is more common in men.
Remarks:
Often, treatment of a lipoma is not necessary, unless the tumor becomes painful or restricts movement. People opt for treatment largely for cosmetic reasons. Lipoma is a true surgical condition as medicines cannot dissolve the accumulated fat. Hence surgical removal is the mainstay management for Lipoma. If they do not harm you, they are better not disturbed surgically.
Lipomas are not dangerous
Lipomas are benign, harmless, non-cancerous fatty tumors. They are not dangerous. Usually, they do not grow much in size in most cases. Only in some cases, they may grow large to the size of a table tennis ball or even larger.
Suggestion about homeopathic treatment
Homeopathy is not suggested for the treatment of Lipoma. Many homeopaths might suggest you treat lipomas using Homeopathy. In our experience and understanding, whether you treat lipomas or not, they may remain the same in size and growth.
When do you need surgery for Lipomas?
Well, if the lipoma grows too large or if it is at such a place that it gives pressure symptoms or any kind of obstruction, it may need surgical removal. In such as case, please take a surgeon's opinion. Lipoma might recur even after surgery but if it is very large, surgery may be required.
