Are you having too many lipomas? If that be so, please consult a General Physician on Practo. By the way, who diagnosed that these are lipomas.

Lipomas are generally not a problem. If you have any pain associated with it, if it rapidly increases in seize, changes color, etc. Immediately consult with a surgeon. Or else surgery not mandatory

If you don't have any pain no need of any treatment. Lipoma has no permanent treatment, it usually recur. If you have multiple lipomas, only for cosmetical appearance you can get removed through surgery but have high chance of recurrence.
