Hello Harsha,

Thank you for your question. Lipomas are benign (non-cancerous) fatty lumps that can develop under the skin, including in the armpit area. Unfortunately, lipomas typically do not shrink or disappear completely with medication.

The most effective treatment options for lipomas include:

1. Surgical Removal: This is the most common treatment, where the lipoma is completely removed through a minor surgical procedure. It is usually done under local anesthesia.

2. Liposuction: In some cases, liposuction may be used to remove the fatty tissue of the lipoma, especially if the lump is larger or in a sensitive area like the armpit. This method involves using a thin, hollow tube to suction out the fat.

In some cases, if the lipoma is small and not bothersome, it may not require treatment at all.

It's important to consult with a healthcare professional to discuss the best treatment option for your specific case.

If you need help finding a specialist or have further questions, feel free to contact us via 'Doctor Consultation' or 'Second Opinion' on our HexaHealth app. Our team of medical experts would guide you with most appropriate treatment.

Wishing you good health.
