What specialist do I see to remove Lipomas that are affecting my breathing?

4 Replies

I have lipomas that are blocking my lymphatic system in my scapula, shoulder near my armpit and it is causing me a lot of discomfort, swelling pressure, and labored breathing? Any help or advice is welcome.

Thank you

Hi, this is an asthma forum so you're not likely to find much help here as this isn't asthma - even if it's affecting your breathing, that's for a different reason from asthma.

It sounds like you need to see a doctor asap with this in any case if you haven't already, rather than asking on a patient forum.

Sorry I can't advise on a specialist, but please start with your GP if nothing else as they will have a better idea.

Are you sure this is a lipoma? I think you need to see your GP and get it all checked sooner rather than later.
