Till date no medication for lipoma, lipoma can be surgically removed for cosmetic reason and causing pain, pain may be due to compression effect on adjacent tissue or nerves..

Lipomas are usually benign tumors. Not life threatening. Unfortunately no medicines for lipoma. Surgery is the only treatment if causing problems. Large size can cause pain. You can take pain killers for temporary relief. Get checked by a surgeon
