Okay. Joey vet update. It’s long so I’ll put it under a cut.
They agree that the lump appears to be a lipoma (benign fatty tumor). And they agree that removing it would be best to keep it from getting any bigger. They’ll send it out for pathology to make sure it’s nothing to worry about.
They also mentioned that he seems to have fat deposits on the cheeks. Meanwhile his body has little to no body fat at all. They suspect his pectoral muscles are atrophied, leading to his fat depositing in weird places like his face. So all these years I thought Joey was a skinny boy he may have not been as skinny as I thought.
He just had bloodwork done and it looked good so they’re not worried about that. They did want to do some presurgical radiographs though. Those all looked pretty good, except they noticed what they believe to be aspergillosis. Aspergillosis is a respiratory disease caused by fungal spores. It is very possible he has had this for many years. He has never shown any symptoms and it might be many more years before he becomes symptomatic. But obviously it’s best to take care of it now.
He’s going to get some meds for the next few weeks and then have recheck radiographs on October 1st. If those look improved we’ll go ahead and schedule his surgery

i'm back from the vet, the good news is the vet thinks boomer's tummy bump is just a benign lipoma. buuuuuut she's worried about where it's located, and how fast it's growing. since it's right above his peanus, if it gets any bigger it could impact how he pees and cause problems :/ she's also worried about that cluster of bumps on his hip, where that big floof patch is. she wants to remove it and send to be tested for cancer cells. they already tested it at the vet clinic and said it seemed like just fat cells (like a lipoma), but she's still concerned about it. she said i can wait and monitor both spots for growth, but that i should probably consider getting them removed soon :s

Taurus is not doing great today. Obviously hurting a lot, and not as enthusiastic about food as he's always been. I've been pretty worried, but we're at the vet right now and literally just as I started to make this post, the vet came in to show us his x ray results. It looks like his spleen is being pressed out of place by something, which would definitely explain the pain. The blood test results should be in tomorrow and let us know if he needs an emergency splenectomy - if they're normal, we're probably looking at something like an internal lipoma causing compression, which would be a lot less scary. So, it really depends on what we see in the next 24 hours. I'm trying not to anticipate the worst. Keep your fingers crossed for him, please.

Over on a german language leftist subreddit I just had some guy tell me that fat people whose thighs are touching to the point where it causes health problems are so super rare that we shouldn't consider them in our politics, specifically with regard to cis-hetero society's insistence on pants.
They of course also said that it's not hard to loose enough weight to where your thighs aren't touching anymore and completely disregarded my argument that it's still oppressive to want fat people to conform to their standards, just because they think it's easy to be thin.
As if lipomas on the inner thighs aren't such a widespread thing that we literally have a word for it: Reiterhosen.
Anyway, I'm tired.

fun medical times general don't look warning if such things gross you out/you get angry about misdiagnosis etc
when I was a kid I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis. Great, fine, explained why my knees (and hips though that wasn't picked up for another couple years) didn't bend past right angles and were approximately the shape of a pufferfish. With a bit of treatment I got most of the range of motion back and the puffiness reduced a bit.
there were a few things that never quite gelled like how my blood tests never showed inflammation, x-rays showed no damage in the joints, and anti rheumatic drugs were markedly less useful than simple pain medication and anti inflammatories. But those my GP could manage so the rheumatologists shuffled me off their books.
last year my GP said, well, it's been a decade since you saw a specialist and your pain seems to be getting worse but I don't want you on some of these pain meds forever so let's get someone to look at you. public system said no, there's no inflammation in the blood tests, she's not high priority. GP said, hm, still not happy, want to try private? Me with health insurance and in chronic pain etc said, sure, why not.
specialist says, well, I'm not sure there's much I can do, but let's get you an MRI of one of your knees so we can check what's going on in there.
ever had a medical appointment start with the words, 'your scan results were very interesting'?
turns out I do not have and have have had rheumatoid arthritis.
turns out I have something so rare that I couldn't find a single layperson language resource about it
he got a scan of the other knee and fished out one done of my hips age about fourteen and turns out not only do I have this extremely rare condition; where most people who get it only ever get it in one joint, I have it in four joints: both knees and both hips
this thing is called lipoma arborescens and it's basically just gunk. It limits range of motion and caused pain through purely mechanical obstruction. It can basically only be diagnosed through MRI imaging or cutting open the joint to look, and even MRI has become much better over time: looking at the fuzzy, low-res 15-year-old MRI of my hips, even through my thwarted fury about e misdiagnosis I can kind of see why they didn't catch it.
other key things about lipoma arborescens that distinguish it from rheumatoid arthritis: it doesn't damage bone; it doesn't cause inflammation; and it doesn't respond to anti rheumatic drugs.
recommended treatment is just to go into the joint and cut it out: 'early synovectomy'.
that caused me to choke on a laugh and tell the specialist, you're twenty years too late for early.
but it's one knee down now. Today a knee surgeon went in there and did his thing. In his exacting medical terminology he told me 'there was quite a bit of the stuff in there, but I got most of it out'.
So I'll have a bunch of physiotherapy to do and an exciting new scar across my knee cap. and if it helps, I guess we line up for rounds 2-4.

Lipoma Causes, Symptoms, And Effective Prevention Methods
Lipoma is a common benign tumor that forms under the skin. It is composed of fat cells and can occur in any part of the body, but is most commonly found on the neck, shoulders, arms, and torso. Lipomas are non-cancerous and do not usually cause any harm, but they can be concerning due to their appearance and potential growth. There are different types of lipomas, such as superficial and deep-seated, which may vary in size and location. Lipomas are prevalent in the population, with about 1 in 100 people having them. Despite being harmless, addressing lipoma is important for overall health and wellness. In this article, we will provide a comprehensive understanding of lipoma, covering its causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, and effective prevention methods.
Tumblr media
Symptoms of Lipoma
· Lipoma typically presents as a soft, painless lump under the skin.
· It is commonly found on the neck, shoulders, back, arms, and thighs.
· The size of lipoma can range from small pea-sized to large grapefruit-sized.
· In rare cases, lipoma may cause pressure or discomfort if it grows near nerves or organs.
· Some people may experience multiple lipomas on their body.
It is important to note that lipoma symptoms may vary depending on the location and size of the lump. For example, a lipoma on the neck may cause difficulty in swallowing or breathing, while a lipoma on the thigh may cause discomfort when walking or sitting for long periods.

I'm about to have to make one of the hardest decisions of my life and I don't know if I can do it.
I love my dog. She's the best dog in the world (as all dogs are). We just celebrated her 10th Gotcha Day and she was 2-3 years old when I got her. She's a Doberman, so she is well past her life expectancy.
She does have some quality of life. I think she's still happy. She still hops around like a puppy when we grab her leash to take her on a walk. But I know that quality of life is declining. She used to sleep in my bed almost every night. Now she can barely get up there, and she won't stay. She spends most of her day asleep. She's absolutely covered in lipomas, and more of them keep popping up. I can't even keep track anymore. She has some kind of hip issue that's causing nerve problems. She opened up a massive lick granuloma on her leg because of the nerve sensation, and it's been continually open for years. We can't get her to stop, even with medication, spinal manipulation, and laser therapy. She's having a harder time walking. The back yard is down a high set of stairs and she slips on them almost every day.
She was just diagnosed with laryngeal paralysis and she's not a good candidate for tie-back surgery.
As much as I wish it weren't a factor, the cost of her vet bills has gotten out of hand. We've already spent about $4,000 (USD) on her medical treatments this year. It'll be over $5,000 by the end of the year. We can't afford that. We absolutely can't afford it.
I know I'm going to have to euthanize her. I don't know if I'm keeping her alive when I should have already let her go because I can't bear it. I don't know if I'm trying to euthanize her prematurely. She has good days and bad days. If it were me (and I have a severe degenerative disability, so one day it will be) I would want to pass peacefully while the good days still outnumbered the bad.
I don't know what to do and there isn't a single choice I can make that I won't hate myself for later.

I know you probably were thinking of people who have POTS and orthostatic hypotension when you said compression stockings aren't a mobility aid but on rare occasions it can be, because there are people with lymphedema and lipedema bad enough that they can't walk well unless they're wearing compression stockings (I would know, I have lymphedema though mine isn't severe enough to count as a visible disability). It's not in like. A mad way but I'm just sad everyone in the disability community forgets lymphedema or lipedema exist and just assume it's a fat person disease (which is part of the often fatphobic stigma caused by the only representation the disorders get being my 600 pound life lmao). Tbh I wish people remembered fat storage diseases (not sure what to call them but like. Diseases that cause your body to deposit abnormal amounts of fat in certain places) are visible disabilities (like lipomas, lipedema, adiposis dolorosum, epidural lipomatosis, and I'm sure there's plenty more because I'm 99 percent sure I have the "apple shaped" equivalent of lipedema with a huge painful fat deposit on my neck that burns when you touch it, as well as a huge fat deposit inside my spine that I've probably had since my teens. Yeah fat disorders are not fun) existed like I try to search lymphedema and epidural lipomatosis on Tumblr and it's like nobody has it but me and people who have since deactivated
i know what you're talking about because i'm pretty sure my ex's father had lymphedema in both of his legs which severely limited his mobility, although he used crutches to get around and not compression wear.
the thing is, i wasn't saying that compression stockings don't help people get around. they do even in the case of people who have POTS or orthostatic hypotension (or autonomic failure.) bug mobility aids are designed with the purpose of assisting in movement. it's not contextual usage. canes (including white canes and not including decorative ones for casual use, which aren't supposed to support weight anyways), crutches, various types of scooters, wheelchairs, rollators, walkers, leg prosthetics, and guide dogs are all examples of things designed for the purpose of assisting in movement. some mobility aids that have both "mobile" and not mobile forms are standing aids and transfer aids (such as sling lifts and lift chairs.) technically stair lifts, ramps, and bars to help you stand up in handicap stalls are also mobility aids, although the way most people use the term probably doesn't suggest that. what unites all of the above is that they're intentionally and explicitly designed for mobility assistance. certain types of orthoses/braces are arguably mobility aids, but not all of them.
basically, all mobility aids help people move around, but not everything that can help someone move around is considered a mobility aid. i think this is an important distinction to make because mobility aid usage comes with a certain stigma all on their own, including mobility aids that you don't carry around with you (although the stigma when it comes to things like stair lifts or hand bars or ramps usually present as exclusion of access when it's needed, or those things not even being present.) mobility aids aren't exclusively designed or used by physically disabled people because we all know able-bodied people with temporary injuries use them, but the stigma around their usage, of course, stems from physical disability.
something like compression wear isn't inherently subject to the same stigma, although it definitely could be stigmatized in relation to certain body types and forms of disability, as you mentioned here. pain medications that contextually help people physically get around are certainly stigmatized and that stigma may overlap in some superficial ways to, say, getting around with a cane or chair or whatever, but overall it's a different type of stigma. you can personally consider something in your disability situation as a mobility aid, but that doesn't mean it is socially or medically recognized as such, which makes general claims like "compression stockings are a mobility aid" untrue, while "compression stockings help me walk" certainly can be true if that's the case. it's the difference between something explicitly meant to assist mobility vs. something that sometimes can.
generally, certain things can be thought of as a "mobility aid" in certain circumstances if you use the term very literally, but in a broader sense of the term, they aren't. it's more a matter of the stigma around mobility aid usage than semantics though. i hope all of that makes sense. no one has to agree with me, but that's the logic behind my thoughts.
also, this makes me wish i mentioned lymphedema and similar conditions in my post about people who "move wrong" due to their disabilities 'cause i tried to go out of my way to include conditions that are seldom talked about. i'm sorry that you don't have anyone to share your experiences with on tumblr. it must be painfully isolating and no one deserves that.

How to Remove Skin Lumps and Bumps
Tumblr media
Skin lumps and bumps are common, and while most are harmless, some may require medical attention. Understanding the types, causes, and removal methods is essential for maintaining healthy skin. This guide covers everything you need to know about skin lumps and bumps, including effective treatments and prevention tips.
What Are Skin Lumps and Bumps?
Skin lumps and bumps refer to raised areas on the skin. They vary in size, shape, and texture and can appear anywhere on the body. Common examples include:
Moles
Cysts
Lipomas
Skin tags
Warts
Keratoses
These may result from blocked glands, infections, or genetic factors. While many are benign, changes in size, color, or texture warrant medical evaluation.
When Should You Be Concerned?
It's vital to monitor any new or existing skin lumps and bumps for changes, including:
Rapid growth
Pain or tenderness
Bleeding or ulceration
Changes in color or texture
Consulting a dermatologist ensures proper diagnosis and treatment.
Types of Skin Lumps and Their Causes
1. Moles
Moles are pigmented skin growths caused by clusters of melanocytes. Most moles are benign, but irregular moles may indicate melanoma, a type of skin cancer.
2. Cysts
Cysts are fluid-filled sacs beneath the skin, often caused by blocked glands or infections. They can form on various parts of the body and may require drainage.
3. Lipomas
Lipomas are fatty tissue growths that feel soft and moveable. These benign lumps are usually painless but can be removed if they cause discomfort.
4. Skin Tags
Skin tags are small, flesh-colored growths caused by friction. They are non-cancerous and typically appear in areas like the neck, armpits, and groin.
5. Warts
Warts are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). They appear as rough bumps on the skin and are highly contagious.
6. Seborrheic Keratoses
These are non-cancerous growths that appear with age. They are typically brown or black and may have a waxy appearance.
Treatment Options for Skin Lumps and Bumps
1. Medical Treatments
A dermatologist can recommend treatments tailored to the type of lump or bump. Common medical procedures include:
Cryotherapy
Cryotherapy uses liquid nitrogen to freeze and remove warts, skin tags, and keratoses.
Excision Surgery
Surgical removal is common for larger growths like lipomas and suspicious moles. This is performed under local anesthesia.
Laser Removal
Laser treatment is effective for skin tags, warts, and certain moles. It’s a precise, non-invasive option with minimal downtime.
Electrocautery
This technique involves using electric current to burn off small skin growths like warts and skin tags.
2. Over-the-Counter (OTC) Treatments
For minor skin issues, OTC treatments may be effective. Options include:
Salicylic acid creams for warts
Adhesive patches to gradually reduce skin tags
Tea tree oil or apple cider vinegar as natural remedies (use with caution)
3. Home Remedies
Some people opt for natural methods to remove skin lumps. Popular remedies include:
Aloe Vera: Reduces inflammation and soothes irritated skin.
Tea Tree Oil: Known for its antimicrobial properties, it’s often used for warts.
Apple Cider Vinegar: Can be applied to skin tags to dry them out.
Note: Consult a dermatologist before trying home remedies, as they may not be suitable for all skin conditions.
Preventing Skin Lumps and Bumps
While not all lumps are preventable, adopting a healthy skincare routine can reduce your risk. Here are some tips:
Maintain Good Hygiene: Cleanse your skin regularly to prevent clogged pores.
Protect Your Skin: Use sunscreen to minimize sun damage, which can lead to skin growths.
Avoid Skin Irritation: Reduce friction in areas prone to skin tags by wearing loose clothing.
Boost Your Immunity: A strong immune system can help combat viruses like HPV.
Are Skin Lumps and Bumps Dangerous?
Most skin lumps and bumps are harmless. However, changes in appearance or persistent discomfort could indicate an underlying issue. Seek medical attention if:
A mole changes in size, shape, or color.
A cyst becomes inflamed or painful.
A bump bleeds or does not heal.
Early diagnosis is key to managing potentially serious conditions like skin cancer.
How Dermatologists Can Help
Dermatologists specialize in diagnosing and treating skin conditions. During a consultation, they may:
Examine your skin using a dermatoscope.
Perform a biopsy if necessary.
Recommend treatment options based on the diagnosis.
Regular skin check-ups are crucial, especially if you have a family history of skin cancer.
Conclusion
Skin lumps and bumps are a common concern, but understanding their types and treatment options can help you manage them effectively. Whether you choose medical procedures, OTC treatments, or natural remedies, consulting a dermatologist ensures safe and effective care.
If you’re experiencing changes in your skin or wish to explore removal options, schedule an appointment with a qualified dermatologist today.
FAQs
1. Can I remove skin lumps and bumps at home? Minor skin tags and warts can sometimes be treated with OTC remedies, but professional evaluation is recommended for safe removal.
2. Are all moles dangerous? No, most moles are benign. However, changes in size, shape, or color may indicate melanoma and should be examined by a dermatologist.
3. How can I prevent warts? Avoid direct contact with warts and maintain good hygiene to reduce the risk of HPV infection.
4. Is laser removal painful? Laser removal is generally well-tolerated and causes minimal discomfort. Your dermatologist may apply a numbing cream before the procedure.
5. What’s the cost of removing skin lumps? Costs vary based on the type of lump and procedure. Many treatments are covered by insurance if medically necessary.

Understanding Lipomas: Causes, Symptoms and When to Consider Surgery
Lipomas are one of the most common types of soft tissue growths, typically presenting as soft, fatty lumps beneath the skin. While generally benign and painless, these lumps can sometimes become bothersome for various reasons. This blog explores what lipomas are, their causes and symptoms, and when to consider surgery for removal. For those seeking expert consultation in India, Restore Clinic in Navi Mumbai, led by Dr. Ashish Sangvikar, offers specialized care in lipoma removal, providing patients with safe and effective solutions tailored to individual needs.
Tumblr media
What is a Lipoma?
A lipoma is a benign (non-cancerous) tumor composed of fat cells. It often appears as a soft, doughy lump under the skin that moves easily when touched. Lipomas are usually slow-growing and can occur anywhere on the body but are most commonly found on the neck, shoulders, back, abdomen, arms, or thighs. Although harmless, lipomas can become problematic due to their size, location, or cosmetic appearance, prompting some people to seek treatment.
Causes of Lipomas
The exact cause of lipomas remains unknown, but certain factors may contribute to their development:
1. Genetics: Studies indicate that genetics play a significant role in the formation of lipomas. If close family members have lipomas, you may be more likely to develop them as well. 2. Age: Lipomas are more commonly found in middle-aged adults, typically between the ages of 40 and 60. While they can occur at any age, they are relatively rare in children.
3. Trauma: Some researchers speculate that trauma or injury to a particular area may contribute to the development of a lipoma, although this link is still under investigation.
4. Conditions and Syndromes: Certain conditions, such as familial multiple lipomatosis, Gardner syndrome, and Madelung’s disease, are associated with the formation of multiple lipomas. These are rare genetic disorders, and lipomas in these cases are often more widespread.
Symptoms of Lipomas
Lipomas are usually asymptomatic, meaning they don’t cause any symptoms. However, there are some characteristics to watch for:
- Soft, Movable Lump: Lipomas feel soft, rubbery, and can be easily moved under the skin with light pressure. They are typically painless unless pressing on nerves or sensitive areas.
- Slow Growth: Lipomas grow slowly over time and can range in size from a few centimeters to over 10 centimeters in diameter.
- Painless Nature: Most lipomas don’t cause pain. However, in cases where the lipoma is located near nerves or in areas where it interferes with movement, mild pain or discomfort may be experienced.
When to Consider Surgery
Though lipomas are benign, there are instances where surgical removal may be considered. Dr. Ashish Sangvikar at Restore Clinic in Navi Mumbai advises that patients consider removal if the lipoma is:
1. Painful or Uncomfortable: If a lipoma is causing discomfort or pain, especially if it’s pressing on a nerve or limiting movement, removal can relieve symptoms.
2. Growing Rapidly: While most lipomas grow slowly, a lipoma that suddenly starts growing faster than usual should be evaluated to rule out any potential complications or underlying conditions.
3. Interfering with Functionality: In rare cases, large lipomas located near joints or muscles can restrict mobility. Removal in such cases can improve quality of life by restoring comfort and functionality.
4. Cosmetically Unpleasant: For many, the presence of a noticeable or large lipoma can be distressing, impacting self-esteem and confidence. Patients often seek removal for aesthetic reasons, especially if the lipoma is in a visible location.
5. Suspected Complications: Although rare, certain signs — such as unusual firmness, rapid growth, or changes in color — may warrant a biopsy or removal to rule out malignancy. Dr. Sangvikar emphasizes that while lipomas are almost always benign, an assessment of unusual cases can provide peace of mind.
The Lipoma Removal Procedure at Restore Clinic, Navi Mumbai
At Restore Clinic in Navi Mumbai, Dr. Ashish Sangvikar offers safe and effective lipoma removal procedures that prioritize patient comfort and results. The surgery is straightforward and is typically done on an outpatient basis, meaning patients can return home the same day.

1. Excision: The most common approach for lipoma removal is excision, where Dr. Sangvikar carefully makes a small incision over the lipoma and removes it completely. This method is precise and ensures minimal scarring.
2. Minimal Invasiveness: Dr. Sangvikar and his team focus on minimizing invasiveness, using techniques that reduce recovery time and scarring. This attention to aesthetic outcomes is especially important for patients removing lipomas from visible areas.
3. Aftercare and Recovery: Post-surgery, patients are provided with detailed aftercare instructions to ensure smooth healing and optimal results. At Restore Clinic, follow-up consultations are also available to monitor progress and address any concerns.
