From your description you have multiple lipomas or similar soft-tissue swellings in the body. These swellings sometimes look scary, but are harmless. If you wish to get them removed, it is fun for the doctor, who will make money in proportion to the number of swellings he or she removes. Even if a doctor removes all the swellings they will recur after some years. The right treatment is: first, consult a good doctor, and confirm that these are harmless swellings, not cancer. Then, take a second opinion to confirm that these are harmless swellings, not cancer. If second and more opinions have confirmed that you do not need removal of these swellings, leave them alone.A swelling needs to be removed if a. the doctors says it looks like a cancer, b. it is growing rapidly in size, c. if it is cosmetically troublesome (e.g. swellings on the face), or d. if it is causing pain. I understand that at least one of the swellings is causing pain. Check with your doctor. If the doctor says that removal of the swelling will relieve the pain, get it removed. Be prepared: removal of the swelling may or may not relieve your pain, but will certainly relieve your anxiety!
