Treatment of a fatty tumor

Treatment of a lipoma is a procedure for treating a benign tumor. Let's look at the features of this procedure, types of treatment and the most effective treatment recipes.

A lipoma is a benign tumor that consists of fatty tissue. The medical name for a lipoma is a lipoma. A lipoma is a movable soft nodule that is located above the skin. Very often, when palpating a lipoma, you can feel a small capsule. Despite this, the skin above the lipoma remains normal. Lipomas themselves are absolutely painless and can be on the skin for many years. The size of such a tumor does not exceed 3-6 centimeters, but with inflammatory and infectious diseases, a lipoma can grow up to 10 centimeters.

There are several types of lipomas, let's look at them:

• Annular lipoma of the neck is a fatty tumor that is located around the neck.
• Encapsulated lipoma – appears due to the growth of fatty tissue in the capsule of any organ.
• Dendritic lipoma - this type of fat appears in the joints and grows, sending its shoots throughout the entire joint system.
• A cavernous lipoma is a tumor that has many vessels.
• Painful lipoma – several tumors form on the skin, which cause discomfort and pain.
• Soft lipoma – fat deposits with a liquid consistency.
• Fibrous lipoma is a tumor that has a dense consistency and is characterized by the proliferation of connective tissue.
• Ossified lipoma is a fatty tumor within which bone tissue grows.

How is a lipoma treated?

Treatment of a lipoma is a procedure that is used only as a last resort, when the lipoma creates a cosmetic defect or causes inconvenience. As a rule, the neoplasm does not carry complications and does not create problems for the normal functioning of the body. A quick way to treat a lipoma is surgical removal of the tumor along with the capsule. It is not recommended to remove fat deposits on your own, as there is a high probability of infection. In addition, due to improper removal, tumor relapses are possible.

As the neoplasm develops, it increases in size, so if you do not start treating it in time, the lipoma will start to cause a number of cosmetic inconveniences, especially if the tumor is located on a visible part of the body. If the lipoma is treated in time, there will be no negative consequences for the body. Some people experience painful sensations when a lipoma develops, in this case we are talking about a malignant lipoma, which requires mandatory treatment.

The correct treatment of a lipoma is surgical treatment. The lipoma must be cut and completely cleaned of neoplasms and capsules. Treatment must be carried out by a professional surgeon, as this is a guarantee that there will be no more relapses. A neoplasm on the body can be detected using an X-ray or ultrasound. The easiest way is to treat fat deposits immediately after they appear, as this is a guarantee that the lipoma will not appear again and the treatment will be effective.

Methods of treating lipomas

In medical practice, there are several methods of treating lipomas, let's look at them.

• Injection of a drug into the lipoma that promotes the resorption of the lipoma. The peculiarity of this method is that it can only be used on lipomas that are no more than three centimeters in diameter. This method of treatment is quite effective, complete resorption of the tumor occurs within two to three months.
• Liposuction – a small incision is made in the tumor, into which a vacuum tube is inserted and the resulting fatty tissue is sucked out.
• Surgical treatment – the patient is given anesthesia and the tumor is cut. The capsule and newly formed fatty tissue are cleaned out of the tumor. Please note that this treatment leaves a scar.
• Endoscopic removal – an endoscopic system is inserted into the neoplasm, which allows the lipoma to be removed from the tissue. After such treatment, a small scar remains on the skin, which dissolves over time.
• Self-growth of a lipoma - this method of treatment consists in the fact that the neoplasm is not touched. The tumor passes on its own, all stages of development and completely disappears in a couple of years. In addition, this method of treatment does not leave traces or scars. This treatment is suitable only for those lipomas that do not interfere and do not carry cosmetic inconveniences.

Treatment of lipoma with Vishnevsky ointment

Treatment of lipoma with Vishnevsky ointment is a simple and non-surgical method of treating lipoma. The main advantage of such treatment is that it does not require a lot of money, does not cause discomfort and does not require a rehabilitation process.

Take a bandage, a small cotton swab or a piece of gauze. Apply Vishnevsky ointment to the cotton wool or gauze bandage and apply to the neoplasm. It is recommended to wear the bandage during the day. It is best to do such compresses at night. In 3-4 days, the wen will completely dissolve. The only drawback of such treatment is the unpleasant smell of the ointment and its greasy oily consistency. Therefore, after such a compress, it is recommended to wipe the skin with the neoplasm with an alcohol solution or calendula infusion.

Treatment of lipomas with cinnamon

For lovers of the most aromatic spice, there is great news: there is an effective treatment for lipomas with cinnamon. The peculiarity of this treatment is that cinnamon must be consumed in food. Thus, cinnamon will have a beneficial effect on the body and the resorption of the neoplasm.

Add cinnamon to porridge and sandwiches, drinks and other dishes. You need to eat at least a tablespoon of cinnamon per day. This treatment is pleasant, but quite long, so do not count on a stunning effect after a couple of days of taking cinnamon. To completely get rid of a lipoma, you will need at least 3-4 months of regular cinnamon consumption.

Treatment of lipomas with Kalanchoe

Treatment of lipomas with Kalanchoe is considered a simple, effective and natural method of treating lipoma. Kalanchoe is a medicinal plant that is used to treat both skin diseases and inflammatory processes in the body.

To treat a lipoma, you will need a couple of fresh Kalanchoe leaves. The leaves can be crushed into a paste, put on a gauze pad and applied to the lipoma. You can also cut the plant leaf in half and attach it to the neoplasm with a bandage. The compress should be changed every day. In just a week, the lipoma will have significantly decreased in size, and in a couple of weeks it will have completely resolved.

Treatment of wen with celandine

Treatment of lipoma with celandine is a simple, but most importantly, fast and effective method of getting rid of the tumor. It has long been proven that celandine juice has medicinal properties. But, despite this, you should handle the juice very carefully, as the juice can burn the skin. You can buy celandine juice at a pharmacy, but you can also get juice from a fresh plant yourself.

For treatment, apply 1-2 drops of celandine to the lipoma. The procedure is recommended to be performed no more than three times a day. After a few days of such treatment, a small hole will form on the lipoma. After this, it is best to switch from celandine to treating the lipoma with Vishnevsky ointment, which is described above. Apply the ointment to a cotton swab and apply it to the neoplasm. This will pull the lipoma out and get rid of infection and inflammation. The compress should be applied a couple of times a day, after which wipe the skin with an alcohol swab.

Treatment of lipoma with an asterisk

Treatment of a lipoma with an asterisk is a rather specific way to get rid of a benign tumor. The Vietnamese asterisk balm has an anti-inflammatory effect. To treat a lipoma, apply the ointment to it and cover it with a plaster. It is recommended to carry out this procedure until the fatty tumor opens.

After this, for 2-3 days, with light pressure, you can remove the contents of the lipoma yourself. Please note that this method of treatment is strictly contraindicated for removing lipoma on the face.

Treatment of lipomas by Malysheva

Treatment of lipomas by Malysheva tells about all the methods of fast and effective treatment. Malysheva focuses on the fact that lipomas are a benign and painless tumor that appears and disappears by itself. But if the fat appears on the face and any other visible part of the body, then it requires treatment.

For self-treatment of lipomas, Malysheva recommends using traditional medicine methods and medicinal recipes. It is strictly forbidden to open the neoplasm on your own, as this may cause infection to enter the wound. Which will entail serious consequences, inflammatory processes and even sepsis, which can lead to death. Large fat deposits should be removed only by surgical means. It is imperative to remove the tumor capsule, as it will cause a relapse in the future. To prevent the appearance of lipomas, it is recommended to follow basic hygiene rules and a balanced diet.

Treatment of inflammation of the lipoma

Treatment of inflammation of a lipoma is necessary if there is an infection in the body that caused the inflammation. The neoplasm may also become inflamed due to attempts to get rid of the tumor on your own. But most often, lipomas become inflamed if they are a malignant tumor. In this case, medical treatment and surgical intervention are required. Inflammation occurs both in small neoplasms that have just appeared and in large, overgrown tumors. If a lipoma becomes inflamed, it is recommended to seek medical help. The doctor will prescribe a blood test and write a prescription for anti-inflammatory antibiotics. This will help relieve inflammation, but after that, it is necessary to remove the lipomas.

You can also get rid of inflammation at home. To do this, you can prepare a compress that will relieve inflammation and promote faster resorption of the lipoma. Apply a few drops of celandine oil to a gauze bandage and apply it to the neoplasm for a couple of hours. Within a day, you will notice that the inflammation has gone away and the lipoma is beginning to dissolve. Lotions made from chamomile or aloe leaf infusion will also be effective.

Treatment of lipoma without surgery

Treatment of a lipoma without surgery is an achievement of modern medicine. For non-surgical treatment, various compresses, ointments, and tinctures are used, which are applied to the neoplasm. This method of treatment is absolutely safe, but it takes a lot of time. But there are also modern methods of fast and effective treatment of a lipoma without surgery. Such methods include radio wave, puncture-aspiration, or laser treatment. All these methods allow you to cure a lipoma without surgery, blood, or scars.

• For example, radio wave treatment is perfect for small neoplasms. The operation can be performed on both adults and children. The rehabilitation period after such treatment takes 5-7 days. There are no stitches after the operation, there are no relapses and complications.
• Laser treatment is similar to the previous method. The advantage of this method is that after such treatment the lipoma does not recur. This treatment is well suited for removing lipomas on the face and all visible and delicate areas of the body. There are no traces or scars left after the operation.
• Puncture-aspiration treatment of a lipoma - this method involves inserting a needle into the neoplasm, through which the contents are sucked out. The main disadvantage of this method is that the shell, that is, the capsule of the neoplasm remains, and because of this, relapses of the lipoma may occur in the future.

Treatment of lipomas in children

Treatment of lipomas in children is no different from treatment of lipomas in adults. As a rule, benign lipomas in children do not pose a danger to the baby. Since the lipoma does not hurt and does not cause inconvenience, in addition, it will resolve on its own after some time. But this only applies to small neoplasms.

If a child has a large wen or lipoma on a visible part of the body, i.e. the face or neck, it requires removal. Without removal, such a lipoma will grow, penetrate tissues and take root, gradually expanding. In addition, the neoplasm can become inflamed, which will cause suppuration. The most correct method of treatment is surgical removal of the wen. The surgeon removes the wen under local anesthesia and cleans it from the capsule. Within 2-3 weeks, the wound heals and the neoplasm will not appear in the future. To prevent lipomas in children, it is recommended to take a course of safe antibiotics and vitamins.

Treatment of a lipoma is a simple and effective procedure that allows you to quickly and painlessly get rid of the tumor. Despite the fact that lipomas are benign tumors, sometimes they can cause a lot of inconvenience and even complexes. You can remove a lipoma using surgical methods. There is also treatment with medicinal herbs, settings, compresses and ointments, which is painless but long-term.
