I've had a lipoma near my neck and shoulder for about 25 years. It doesn't usually hurt but gets uncomfortable during workouts, especially shoulder exercises like barbell lifts I feel mild pain and tightness when my muscles tense up. Is there a way to treat it without surgery, and what's the best test to check its size?
For your long-standing lipoma that causes discomfort during workouts, non-surgical treatments like liposuction or steroid injections might be considered. To assess its size, an ultrasound is generally the preferred method. If you experience pain or rapid growth, a biopsy might be recommended.
