Lipoma
Lipoma is a benign (non-cancerous) fatty tumor that grows under the skin. It is soft, movable, and painless in most cases. Lipomas are slow-growing and generally harmless, but some may cause discomfort if they press on nerves or grow near joints. Homeopathy offers a safe, non-surgical approach to treating lipomas by addressing their underlying causes and preventing recurrence.
Causes of Lipoma
• Genetic predisposition – Family history increases the likelihood of developing lipomas.
• Obesity & metabolic disorders – Though not directly linked, metabolic imbalances may contribute.
• Lipid metabolism disorders – Abnormal fat storage in the body.
• Injury or trauma – Some lipomas develop at the site of previous injuries.
• Toxin accumulation – The body may form lipomas as a defense mechanism to trap and store toxins.
Symptoms of Lipoma
• Soft, doughy lumps under the skin – Usually painless and movable.
• Slow growth over time – Lipomas increase in size gradually.
• Common locations – Neck, shoulders, arms, back, thighs, and abdomen.
• Multiple lipomas – Some people develop several lipomas (a condition called familial multiple lipomatosis).
• Painful lipomas – Rare, but possible if they press on nerves or contain blood vessels (angiolipoma).
Homeopathic Treatment for Lipoma
Homeopathy stimulates the body’s natural healing response, helping to dissolve fatty lumps and prevent new lipomas.

Dietary & Lifestyle Recommendations for Lipoma
• Follow a balanced, low-fat diet – Reduce intake of processed and fatty foods.
• Increase fiber intake – Helps flush toxins and improves digestion.
• Stay hydrated – Drink at least 8–10 glasses of water daily.
• Exercise regularly – Helps improve metabolism and prevent fat accumulation.
• Detoxify the body naturally – Consume green tea, turmeric, and lemon water.
• Avoid alcohol and smoking – These can contribute to toxin buildup.
