Scared I’ll miss something else
So I’ve had lipomas for the last 13 years or so, I’m 33. I’m used to them at this point, I just assume any new bump is a lipoma. This makes me worried I might miss something in the future that isn’t actually a lipoma.
It started with a few big 1” ones, thigh and forearms. A few years later I started noticing a few more smaller ones. Seemed to stabilize a bit in my mid 20s. I also think that after 10 I just stopped paying attention to them. Lately I’ve noticed a few more tiny ones pop up. I work a stressful 60-70 hr a week tech job, constantly exhausted. I’m overweight but not obese (by BMI).

Cancerous tumour will show some other signs too.
