There's no home treatment. You can ask your doctor about Enzyme supplements to see if it's right for you..
If the lipoma is painful or is growing, your doctor might recommend that it be removed. Lipoma treatments include:
* Steroid injections. This treatment shrinks the lipoma, but usually doesn't completely eliminate the tumor.
* Liposuction. This treatment uses a needle and a large syringe to remove the fatty tumor. Liposuction is usually done when the lipoma is in a location where you want to avoid a large scar. It's difficult to remove the entire tumor with this technique.
* Surgical removal. Larger lipomas are best removed by surgically cutting them out.

I've had a fat ball under the skin on the back of my thigh for about 7 or 8 years. It has stayed the about the same size the entire time. I think it's a lipomas
Yesterday it started getting red and is painful to the touch.
Is there a way to treat this at home?
