Q: Lumps Under Skin - Arm, Leg, Side, Stomach

My boyfriend has these lumps under his skin - and he just got a new one in his belly button. I think he should get it checked out, but I guess a doctor in the past just told him they were calcium deposits or something.

Does anyone else have something similar? Or know what this might be.
The one in his belly button just popped up yesterday, it's about half the size of a golf ball and it doesn't hurt to touch.

There are smaller ones on his arm & leg that are more sensitive to touch.

Any ideas would be great -- thank you!

My husband also has these lumps, he has 3 right now, one on his thigh and two on his stomach. He is having them removed at the end of the month, apparently they can grow to the size of half their fist. Apparently fatty deposits.
