Background

In Western Medicine

A soft, rubbery bulge under the is called Lipoma.  It happens when a lump of fat starts to grow in the soft tissue of the body. They’re classified as tumors, but are usually harmless and can be found in the upper body, arms, or thighs.  They usually appear as small, soft lumps and are mostly less than 2 inches wide. The cause of a Lipoma is not fully understood and many times doctors will leave them alone, unless they form inside the body, in muscles or internal organs and are causing pain or are affecting the muscles, then a surgical removals might be ordered.

In TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine)

In TCM, lipomas are formed by fluids, phlegm and dampness.  When too much phlegm and dampness accumulate in the body, it will block the meridians and cause a stagnation of fluids, which turn into lipomas.

The most effective way to eradicate the phlegm in the body is changing the diet, sleeping before 10:30 pm and to practice an overall healthy lifestyle with nutritional food and exercise.

Symptoms

Different individuals may experience different symptoms, including:

- When you press on one, it will move easily with finger pressure.

- They usually don't hurt, though they can cause pain if they bump up against nearby nerves or have blood vessels running through them

- A soft, rubbery bulge under the skin

- A lump of fat that feels doughy and does not hurt when pressed on it

Diet & Prevention

Exercise daily to keep your body and immune system strong.  Avoid eating caramel, pomegranate, jujube, and grapefruit. Limited salt and sweet intake is recommended. Eating too fast and too much will weaken the stomach and will create more phlegm-dampness.  It is best to eat light and avoid eating uncooked (raw), greasy, fatty, oily, cakes, desserts or oily cakes, snacks, pungent food and chocolate. No smoking, drinking alcohol, coffee and cold beverages.  Preferred foods are melon, lotus leaf, hawthorn, red beans, lentils, white radish, water chestnuts, seaweed, onion, loquat, ginkgo, coix seed, and cabbage.
