It's a fat hypertrophy. Unless you have pain or discomfort or for the cosmetic purposes, you can consider surgical removal.

Common problem among women. Nothing to worry. If you are worried about cosmetic appearance; please consult to get it removed surgically. Otherwise weight loss may decrease size of the swelling also.

It is a normal occurence in many women. You dont have to worry about that. Medications wont cure it completely as its just accumulation of fat tissue. If its bothering you cosmetically you can get it removed by consulting your nearest general or plastic surgeon.
