My sister has multiple lipomas growing on her back, and they've increased from one or two to many. Several dermatologists have said there's no solution except counting them and monitoring. Is there any other way to treat lipomas without surgery? What options do we have?

I've just used Veet hair removal cream around my anus and immediately after washing it off with aloe vera soap, I felt a burning sensation. Now I've got these rashes and red itchy bumps. I'm really worried about it. How can I clear this up?

You are experiencing an allergic reaction to the hair removal cream. To help clear the rash and itching, you can try using a mild hydrocortisone cream like Cortaid. Apply a thin layer to the affected area twice a day. Additionally, you can take an oral antihistamine like Benadryl to help with the itching. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and avoid using any harsh soaps or products on the affected area. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a doctor for further evaluation and treatment.
