I have lipoma on my stomach. And lately it has been swollen and it hurts. What can I do to bring the swelling down? Will a hot cloth or an ice pack help? The last time this happened a doctor told me it will go down on its own, but I was curious if I could do anything to help bring the swelling down?
Hi, Thanks for posting your query. I am Chat Doctor. K and I am pleased to assist you. The only definitive treatment for lipoma is surgery. It will not go down on its own. Having hot cloth or ice pack over it will not help. You need to consult a surgeon for removing the lipoma. I hope that answers your question.
