Kind of clot/lump
Hi,
I have some kind of clot/lump in my body since I was a kid. It's not hurting or anything. Should I be worried? Could it be something dangerous?
Thanks.

Mostly it appears to be multiple lipomatosis, which is a very benign condition. But, if any lipoma appears in area above neck (i.e. if it becomes social stigma) or some joint area or pressure area (front side of elbow, back, buttuck) then you can get it removed.
In general, needs not anything to be done. They will appear spontaneous, may grow in size or remain same, and very rarely may regress also.
