Lipomas are soft, fatty lumps that grow under your skin. You must visit your general practitioner if: you get a lump anywhere on your body; your lump is painful, hot or red; your lump is hard and does not move. Your general practitioner will usually have the ability to inform if the lump is a lipoma. In uncommon cases, lumps under your skin can be a sign of something more severe. Lipomas are safe.
