Patient's question:
Can gastric lipomas heal on their own without surgery? Is it true that once diagnosed as a tumor, it always needs to be surgically removed?Doctor's answer:
Gastric lipomas are relatively rare in clinical diagnosis and are benign tumors. Whether surgical intervention is required depends on the size of the tumor. If the tumor is large, it is necessary to consider timely surgical removal. In daily diet, avoid spicy and irritating foods, and consume more vegetables and fruits. Additionally, eat small meals frequently and avoid extremely cold foods. Regular follow-up examinations should also be scheduled.
