I have multiple lipomas and want to avoid surgery. I read about a treatment where they inject medicine to make them disappear in 9 months. Is this method safe with no side effects? Also, can exercise help get rid of lipomas?

Lipoma treatments include:

Surgical removal. Most lipomas are removed surgically by cutting them out. Lipomas typically don't return once they're removed. Possible side effects are scarring and bruising. ... Liposuction. This treatment uses a needle and a large syringe to remove the fatty lump.

I've been getting these cyst-like things on my waist, mostly on one side. They fill up with pus and blood and stick around for about 35 days before they finally go away. It sometimes happens under my thighs too, but not as often. It's kind of worrying me. What could be causing this, and what should I do about it?

That could be bacterial infection,and needs physical examination,visit Dermatologist for appropriate management

I'm having a bit of a freak-out right now. I've always had a few breakouts after getting my back waxed, but this time it's way worse. My back and even my upper chest are completely covered in these tiny red breakouts. It's really worrying me. Do you have any idea why this might be happening or what I should do about it?

It is not unusual to experience breakouts or irritation after waxing. The widespread nature of your breakouts this time may be caused due to folliculitis or allergic rash. It may also be contact dermatitis to the type of wax used on this occassion. It is best to consult a dermatologist for further intervention.
