Neck Lipoma

Hi: I really no idea about this fatty tissue tumor other than information found online. I am a 52 yr old female and have a lipoma on my neck about the size of a golf ball. Not sure where to begin to take care of this. I have always been healthy and fortunate to stay out of the medical world. But my husband insists that I should consider having this checked out just to make sure it it is nothing else and to inquire as to the most minimal invasive process to remove (my spouse is an MRI tech). Thank you for your professional courtesy. Janet Suarez
