Having a fatty muscle small node
I had a small node of fatty muscle beside my chest and it was from more than 1.5 years. I had gone through many of the hemopathic treatment but that has nothing worked out. It is not attached to my ribs. I feel no any pain even after touching or pressing it. It feels like some times harder and sometimes little soft. I am not able to understand that what I do, is I go for a operation to remove that node or apply some other treatment.

Is the lump soft or firm? Is the lump getting bigger over the last few months?
If there is any pain or increase of size then it is better to see a surgeon to examine it. If there is a necessity they may either do a needle biopsy of remove it.
Homeopathy will not help.

Fatty nodes or lipomas are common..if it is not pressing any vital tissue you will not feel any pain. In such cases there is no need to remove it.
Even if you want to get it removed then also it is not a major surgery. Just a pin prick.
