10 Causes of Lipoma
As time goes by, our bodies tend to acquire various lumps, bumps and other imperfections. Sometimes these will go away themselves, and sometimes they will stay, but most are harmless. Sometimes we know exactly what caused them, while at other times their appearance is more of a mystery.
Lipomas are soft, fatty accumulations just beneath the skin. They tend to appear in middle-aged people but can be found in people of all ages. They are nearly always harmless and can often just be left alone, although you might wish to remove them for aesthetic reasons. In some cases, they can become very large and can be numerous, and surgery may be required to remove them if they are severe enough.
