Are you concerned about those jelly-like lumps under your skin? You’re not in this battle alone. Most lipomas are harmless, but they can get you on your nerves. But what if there’s a gentle, natural way to address this fat concern? Enter the world of homeopathy, as Dr. Vaseem Choudhary and his expert team have opened a whole new way in treating lipomas, especially at the deepened Homeo Care Clinic.
What is a lipoma?
Lipomas do say that nature can’t stay out of mischief. With no forbidding signs or symptoms, these benign tumors appear out of nowhere, often leaving one scratching their heads. But don’t be afraid! An understanding of lipomas can lead one to tackle them.
At the most basic level, lipomas are soft, rubbery lumps that grow slowly beneath the skin. They’re like the introverts of the tumor world – generally keeping to themselves and not causing much fuss. However, their presence can still be a nuisance to many.
Types of lipomas:
- Conventional lipomas: This is your usual, everyday fatty tissue that forms them.
- Angiolipomas: By definition, a little more complicated since they contain little blood vessels alongside the fat cells.
- Fibrolipomas: These are associated with fibrous tissue that makes them feel a bit harder than usual.
- Myelolipomas: These are lipomas which are very rare and located in the adrenal glands.
- Spindle cell and pleomorphic lipomas: These are lipomas which have the presence of cells which have such features which usually do not appear. These more often show up on the neck and shoulders.
These are those visitors you never want at a party but just show up out of nowhere. You would likely be surprised at how often lipomas pop up in the population.
Epidemiology:
Affect around 1% of the population
More common in adults between the ages of 40-60
Slightly more common in males than females
Age, gender distribution:
They can occur at any age but generally appear for the first time during middle adulthood.
- In children, they are rare but instances are not uncommon
- Around 20% of the patients end up with multiple lipomas
What causes lipomas?
The age-old question is that why does the fat collection decide to reside in our bodies? An exact cause cannot always be pinpointed but several factors are taken into consideration.
Genetic factors:
- It’s hereditary – almost 30% of people having lipomas have a familial history of the same.
- Inherited: some inborn disasterous syndromes such as familial multiple lipomatosis increase the chance of a person developing a lipoma.
Hormonal causes:
- Fluctuation in hormonal levels such as that which occurs during puberty, pregnancy, or menopause can enhance the process of lipoma
- Other endocrine-related disturbances might lead to the occurrence of a lipoma
Other possible causes include;
- Trauma to a region. Although this has not been well established there is some still being debated subject on the matter.
