Welcome to Chat Doctor .1. As long as it's not causing discomfort for you, you don't have to get the surgery done.(If lipoma is confirmed)2.No not the permanent solution - there are chances of recurrence (very less percentage)3. Wait till cause cosmetic / pain, discomfort.4. No it will not disturb your total body.5.you have to decide what to do. Anything to ask ? Do not hesitate. Thank you.
