This can depend on how deep the lipoma extends and how large the incision needs to be. Usually the pain can be treated with a combination of non-opioids medications and occasionally may need an opioids.
Normally you have pain immediately after surgery that can last for days to weeks. after the complete removal of the lipoma, you should not typically have pain once you are completely healed. sincerely, Darren Sachs, d.o.
Pain after lipoma removal is usually minimal, especially for smaller lipomas. Many patients will do well with acetaminophen and ibuprofen alone. Recovery is typically rapid.
Yes. All Surgeries cause pain, tissues are cut into.
