My wife underwent a lipoma operation last Feb,08.The lipoma was below the left knee and was removed from the back.The lipoma was about 4.5inc long and 2 inc wide. She thought it was just an oversize muscle until she underwent a scan.
During operation , the artery was cut and this complicated the whole operation. It took about two hours before a cardio-vascular doctor arreve and was able to sew back the operation. The firest two months was horrible. Pain relievers was given. She went into a two months physical theraphy that helped her walk.
After 6 months , she can now wald but not as she used to be. We can observef that the middle portion of the left foot is very thin. It seems that the tissues, muscle on the middle of the left foot is thinning out.
What is causing this? There is still pain in this area. Can the pain due to the less tissue in the area causing and the pain is caused by the bones ? Whom do we consult? How about her diet ?
Thanks
