First need confirmation about lipoma
Do a USG and FNAC
It can be Neurofibromatosis also
If it's NF, it can be associated with other diseases which may need diagnosis
If Lipoma, nothing to be done, unless compression symptoms or cosmetically indicated, then Surgery

Hi there. A detailed evaluation will be required for proper diagnosis and treatment. Does anyone else in your family has similar problems? There are some familial forms like multiple lipomatosis which need proper diagnosis.

Please take online consultation with a neurologist
