Hello mam, I am 52 YO female with surgically removed gall bladder and uterus simultaneously 4 years back. I have 13 big lipomas on my head on my scalp since last 23 years. I had thick hair so the lipomas were not visible to other people but now my hair have fallen with age and hair have stopped growing on and around lipomas so now the lipomas are being visible and new small lipomas are also growing all over the scalp, further reducing my hair growth. 23 years back when first showed the first lipoma to two doctors, they told that these are incurable and harmless and if surgical removed, they will grow again so leave it like that. That time I didn't know that there will be these many lipomas in my head in future. Please suggest what's the treatment for removal of so many scalp lipomas. Thanks

Ans: Lipoma are fat laiden mass. This happens if your fat metabolism is varied and there is disturbance in its distribution in the body. This could be the Constituition you are born with. Adding to this, you have no gall bladder whose function helps in the digestion of fat.
Lipomas in your case are multiple. We can it resect all of them. Few tips, to prevent further formations aee
Avoid fatty food,Have dinner by 6 pm, Exercise to burn out calories, connect with the warm with your warmth and engage more with people in person rather than in virtual

I feel your fat metabolism is affected.
What has formed as lipoma cannot be cured but you can avoid further formation through your regulation of fat through

Question by Mohammad - Aug 20, 2024Hindi

Health

Hello Dr...Good Day! I like to have your medical suggestion about the treatment of multiple lipomas on my body. Once I got it removed some ten years ago. And from then, I noticed that the lipomas got multiplicated. Would it had been better if I did not gotten the first lipoma removed? Also, kindly let me know the most safer options of limiting the lipomas in terms of their growth, size and number too. Thanks

Ans: Lipoma usually repears after certain period of time. It will be better to get the lipid profile done and have a physical consultation done.
There is limited evidence to suggest removal of lipoma has long term benefit.

Ans: Hello;

Send a reminder notice to the banks seeking time bound implementation of the Court order.

Either they may be preparing to appeal against the lower court order or it may be just a case of procedural delay.

Await their feedback before escalating to the court.

Money

My loans have crossed 40 lakhs and i dont have job. I dont know what should i do as i do not have any money to pay back. I am taking loans to repay interest for old loans.

Ans: Hello;

Sell some of your asset like land, gold or vehicle to repay the loan on priority.

Don't borrow to repay existing loans. Restructure the loans or seek a moratorium till you get a job.

Borrow funds from family and friends explaining your mistakes and promise to repay once you get another job.

Keep in mind the old saying to cut your cloth as per your size and act accordingly.
