I'm really confused about these medications. First, I was prescribed isotino 5mg for 20 days, but nothing happened to my skinno reaction or even side effects. Now, I've been given tretin iso 10mg tabs, and I'm not sure what to expect. Should I be concerned, or is there a reason why the first medication didn't work? Also, how can I send you a photo of my skin to help you see what I'm dealing with?

I've got these lumps under my skin, which I've learned are called lipomas. They're not painful, but I'm curious if there's any treatment or medication out there that could get rid of them. The doctors Ive spoken to say they're harmless and don't require medicine, but I'm still a bit concerned. Could you give me some advice on this?
While there's no oral medication to cure lipoma, treatment options like steroid injections, liposuction, or surgical removal can be considered
