Getting anything unusual or weird symptoms instantly makes me turn to the RA. The first thing I do is search for it in the Q&A section. Lol. Hope it gets better for you. Hugs!

I have them on both arms. The left arm I have two on my right I have one. Some times they hurt and sometimes they don’t. Been trying to have the docs look at them

Hi SALxo ! I had 4 fatty tumors removed 4 months ago. They usually do not hurt unless they put pressure on a nerve. I had one lg. one on my thigh, rest were on both arms. They do not know what causes them. Possibly genetic. There is no prevention or diet to be concerned with because they just don't know what causes them. Has nothing to do with Rheumatoid. When I used Humara I would get a small lump on the injection site. My body just did not accept it well and it would not absorb so I quit the Humara. Again these fatty tumors had nothing to do with anything. All you can do is have them surgically removed as needed. Good luck and GOD speed.
