I'm seeing my family Dr. for the results of the ultrasound. Regardless of what these bumps are, I do want options for getting them removed as they are quite gross and unsightly lol. I'm in Canada, so I'm unsure if it would be covered by our medical though, if it is deemed "elective" by my Doctor.
Really just wondering what other options there are for these lumps to be?? If they aren't lipoma, (as the ultrasound technician noted ) then I can't find any other options other than cancer. But I'm SURE there are some...

If your doctor brushes it off as nothing, be proactive to push for a specialist opinion and hopefully surgery.
Keep us updated regarding your follow-up.
