Lipoma

Lipoma A lipoma is a fatty tumor located just below the skin. It isn't cancer and is usually harmless. A lipoma is a slow-growing, fatty lump that's most often situated between your skin and the underlying muscle layer. A lipoma, which feels doughy and usually isn't tender, moves readily with slight finger pressure. Lipomas are usually detected in middle age. Some people have more than one lipoma. Symptoms Lipomas can occur anywhere in the body. They are typically: • Situated just under the skin. They commonly occur in the neck, shoulders, back, abdomen, arms and thighs. • Soft and doughy to the touch. They also move easily with slight finger pressure. • Generally small. Lipomas are typically less than 2 inches (5 centimeters) in diameter, but they can grow. • Sometimes painful. Lipomas can be painful if they grow and press on nearby nerves or if they contain many blood vessels. When to see a doctor A lipoma is rarely a serious medical condition. But if you notice a lump or swelling anywhere on your body, have it checked by your doctor. Causes The cause of lipomas isn't fully understood. They tend to run in families, so genetic factors likely play a role in their development. Risk factors Several factors may increase your risk of developing a lipoma, including: • Being between 40 and 60 years old. Although lipomas can occur at any age, they're most common in this age group. • Genetics. Lipomas tend to run in families. • Goldstein BG, et al. Overview of benign lesions of th...

Skin Lumps: Potential Causes and Treatment Options

Skin lumps are generally not considered dangerous. If you notice changes in the color or size of the lump, you may want to have a dermatologist check for cancer. What are skin lumps?

Skin lumps caused by injury usually swell suddenly, within a day or two of the traumatic event. Cysts A cyst is another typical cause of skin lumps. A cyst is an enclosed area of skin tissue that forms underneath the outermost layer of skin. Cysts are usually filled with fluid.

Dermatophilosis in Animals

Dermatophilosis is a bacterial skin infection affecting multiple species of animals world-wide. It is most common in young or immunosuppressed animals or in animals chronically exposed to wet conditions. Signs include matted hair, crusts, and wart-like lesions that can have a wide distribution. Diagnosis is by cytology from lesions or bacterial culture. The disease is treated by systemic antibiotics, topical therapy, and changes in husbandry to keep animals dry. Dermatophilosis is a bacterial infection of the skin of animals. It is prevalent worldwide and is caused by Dermatophilus congolensis. Cattle, sheep, goats, and horses are affected most frequently, and pigs, dogs, and cats rarely. Lay terms for this disease include "lumpy wool" and "Strawberry foot rot (for infections on the feet)." Recent isolates from sea turtles may represent a new species of Dermatophilus. It is also a common disease in farmed crocodiles and has been reported in polar bears. The few human cases reported usually have been associated with handling diseased animals. Etiology, Transmission, and Epidemiology of Dermatophilosis in Animals D congolensis is a gram-positive, non-acid-fast, facultative anaerobic actinomycete. It is the only currently accepted species in the genus, but a variety of strains can be present within a group of animals during an outbreak. It has two characteristic morphologic forms: filamentous hyphae and motile zoospores. The hyphae are characterized by branching filaments (1–...

Cellulite

Anatomy of cellulite As fat cells increase, they push up against the skin. Tough, long connective cords pull down. This creates an uneven surface or dimpling, often referred to as cellulite. Cellulite is a very common, harmless skin condition that causes lumpy, dimpled flesh on the thighs, hips, buttocks and abdomen. The condition is most prevalent in women. Many people try, with variable success, to improve the appearance of their skin through weight loss, exercise, massage and creams marketed as a solution to cellulite. Medically proven treatment options are available as well, though results aren't immediate or long lasting. Symptoms Cellulite looks like dimpled or bumpy skin. It's sometimes described as having a cottage cheese or orange peel texture. You can see mild cellulite only if you pinch your skin in an area where you have cellulite, such as your thighs. Cellulite that is more severe makes the skin appear rumpled and bumpy with areas of peaks and valleys. Cellulite is most common around the thighs and buttocks, but it can also be found on the breasts, lower abdomen and upper arms. When to see a doctor Treatment isn't necessary. But if you're concerned about the appearance of your skin, talk with your primary care doctor or a specialist in skin diseases (dermatologist) or plastic surgery about treatment options. Causes Little is known about what causes cellulite. It involves fibrous connective cords that tether the skin to the underlying muscle, with the fat lying...

The fat tissue in a myelolipoma produces white blood cells, unlike in conventional lipomas. • Spindle cell lipoma. As the name suggests, the fat cells in this growth appear spindle-like. • Pleomorphic lipoma. This form of lipoma contains fat cells of varying sizes and shapes. • Fibrolipoma. A fibrolipoma contains both fat and fibrous tissue. • Angiolipoma. If your lipoma contains a large number o...
