I have a lipoma on my forehead right in the center that feels like a cyst. A few doctors said it's nothing to worry about unless it grows bigger, then surgery might be needed. Is there any other treatment option for this or do I just have to wait and see? It's been bothering me and I'm not sure what to do next.

How are lipomas treated? Most lipomas do not need to be removed unless they are painful or need formal diagnosis. Some people also have lipomas removed if they are in an obvious place and are bothered by how they look. The most common way to remove a lipoma is to cut it out surgically or use liposuction

I'm feeling these weird crawling sensations all over my body like insects moving, and they get worse when I'm in water. I've also got joint pains and itchiness all over. I tried taking Bryonia, but it's not helping at all. What could be causing these symptoms and what else should I try?
It sounds like you're experiencing a combination of skin sensitivity, itching, and joint pain, which could be related to a variety of conditions such as neuropathy, skin irritation, or an autoimmune issue. Since Broyonia hasn't provided relief, I recommend consulting with a healthcare provider to explore other potential causes and adjust your treatment plan accordingly.
