I've been having some issues after using oil injections, and now I've got these lumps on my buttocks. I got an ultrasound done, and they said the lumps arent in the muscle but in the subcutaneous area. One lump is 31.5 cm on the left and the other is 61.5 cm on the right. It's been about a year now, and I'm really worried about them. What should I do to get rid of these lumps? How can I treat them?

it sounds like you may be experiencing lipomas, which are non-cancerous growths of fat cells. In your case, since the lumps are located in the subcutaneous area of your buttocks and have been present for a year, it is advisable to consider surgical removal as a treatment option. The brand name medication that can be prescribed to help with the pain and inflammation is ibuprofen, 400mg to 800mg every 6 hours as needed. However, for the lump itself, the definitive treatment would be surgical excision. I recommend consulting with a surgeon for further evaluation and to discuss the possibility of surgical removal of the lipomas.
