Common Questions and Answers about Bumps on a dog

bumps

Avatar n tn My dog just came in from outside and I notices he now has about12 bumps on his body. The bumps are all different sizes. Could this be mosquito bites and if so what should I do?
Avatar n tn A couple days later the large bump was almost gone, but I noticed several smaller bumps on his back. There was a cluster in one area, and a couple in other parts of his body. He is scratching more than usual and the area feels dry. Can it be a flee allergy, and if so, what should I do?
Avatar f tn My dog ​​is 15 years old. A year ago on his skin appeared strange bumps that periodically bursted. what is the problem?
Avatar n tn my 12 yr old lhasa apso male dog has pink bumps on his body..they almost look like moles but they are pink...what could it be...
Avatar n tn my dog, now about 10 months, has bumps on top of her head. they are hard, but i can move them around a little - so I guess, they don't seem to be "attached" to anything? they have appeared over time, not all at once. one of them is starting to part the hair slightly so i can see the scalp... i was told it was an allergy, but not by my vet, which i will take her too soon... but just wondered if you've heard of anything like this.
675923 tn?1296238011 I groomed her last we shaved her hair to a 1/4 inch. It was then that we discovered black pimple like bumps on the top of her lower back. They don't bother her. She is not scratching them on the carpet or grass. She does not chew on her back. No hair loss. They do not look like flea bites. I scratched one and a slight scab came off but not the bump. Any idea's? Any are appreciated.
Avatar f tn A bath in gentle shampoo (i suggest baby shampoo) may ease his discomfort some until you can get to the vet. Baby shampoo is gentle enough to use every day, but I think every other day at most would be better: you don't want his skin to remain moist for any period of time.
Avatar f tn My dog started out with one bump by her ear, almost looked like a boil. Now there are 5. My daughter squeezed the one by her ear and puss and blood came out of it. (not a good idea I know) They are about the size of a pea maybe a little bigger. Not sure what they are, they don't seem to bother her, but it scares me. Cyst, tumor, ingrown hair? If anyone can give me suggestions as what to put on them or what they could be I would really appreciate the help.
Avatar f tn A few days ago i noticed a few small red bumps on my leg, mostly in the area near the ankle. They are not itchy, not warm to touch. i dont have any fever or headache. nothing new in my life, same diet..detergents..I live in eastern Canada (Chilly out so really no bugs yet). at first i thought maybe razor burn but i don't think it is any more. The area that they are most is slightly swollen, they are tender to touch, not really to hard...
20885640 tn?1566593469 My dog has weird bumps on his legs that just fade away then come back again, some huge and some small... Looked in his dog house couldn't find wasps or bugs... kinda limps in one leg... Doesn't have much straw in house, really confused and scared... Answers would great!
1380071 tn?1279095025 I did get a new kind of flea shampoo and a spray -on dip treatment. He broke out a couple days after using this, so I gave him a bath with oatmeal moisturizing shampoo and it hasn't gotten any better, only worse. I do have some antihistamines the vet gave me for a previous hot spot, but they are not working either. I am at a loss right now....I have no idea what to do for my bug guy.
595811 tn?1219341077 I have a female Chow Chow mixed and I am very worried about her. She has this Lump on her belly right next to her nipple. It also has a little red sore on it. It is hard and lumpy, but it is not hard like a rock, so I don't think it is cancer. I am going to be taking her to a vet, but I just really want to know what's wrong with my baby. She is pretty old and I know she is more prone to things like this. Please, any advise will help us. Thank You!
172023 tn?1334672284 My dog has bumps or growths on her back. They are the size of a quarter. One is growing so fast it is only hanging on by a small peice. I wonder if all this dog food we are buying is full of cancer causing poison. They may hurt her because she looks back at them. I tried pills from NuVet but they made her nervous and throw up. She won't let a doc touch her. I know some dog food companies import their product from China. Known to be sold with dangerous chemicals.
Avatar f tn I realized yesterday that my dog has these red solid bumps all over him, they are on his arm,chest,neck, and face. He keeps scratching at them and I have no clue what they could be? Can anyone help?
Avatar f tn I realised that my maltese female dog had a few tiny bumps near her top nipples since the start of 2010 however today i felt them and the bumps have actually grown a bit bigger. I'm really worried because my dog hasn't given birth or doesn't have any sexual history. I'm afraid the bumps will keep growing and turn into a horrible infection that will cause my dog to become really sick. My dog this year is 8 years old. Please help me and my dog.
Avatar f tn They are all over my back, stomach, legs and arms. Mine start with a red area of skin and then some looked like they had a head on it. After a few days they turn into brown marks, almost like a small bruise. They stay like that for about a week or two then slowly fade away. It is very strange. I have always used the same soap, lotions, etc. years before this started. Recently I changed things up and stopped using all my old products and months later the same thing is still happening.
662972 tn?1270166301 Hello Ginger, I was looking in fur last night and her skin is dry....now I put fish oil (o mega 3 ) on her dog food and don't bathe her often. Like the itchy bumps are raised off her skin little and most of itch is going down her spine seems be where bumps are... I give her a benadryl ill daily seems helped little...Guess first week she will go to vet and see what he thinks...
15311409 tn?1439780092 My 8 month old pitbull has suddenly developed red bumps on her chest stomach and anus. Some are flat red spots other appear to have fluid like a pimple. We live in Seattle and I didn't notice the bumps until we got our record heat wave. The bumps on her neck I believe is irritation from her collar but not sure about the stomach and anus.
Avatar n tn Fungal cultures(histo,blasto,etc)and anaerobic cultures.She ordered Clavamox this time.My dog has been on Clavamox for a week now and just two days ago I noticed another sore popping up.My vet just called me and said that Fungal test(histo,blasto)turned out to be negative.What is the cause of all this then?
Avatar m tn 00 a bigger dog snapped at him and caught his head in her mouth. He immediately was knocked out, after a few minutes of panic and screaming I picked him up, he never stopped breathing but it was shallow and slow between breaths. The knot on his head was horrible, he looked like a science fiction monster. He did not bleed but I could see the mark on his head. I put ice on it and it immediately started helping with the swelling. The main injury is on the right side of his head.
Avatar n tn We do walk him and my husband though salt too, but we have not taken him in over a week (he is going crazy) He is 10 now but acts like a puppy. I know lumps and bumps are normal on an older dog, but I am like you, I think it is irritated from the nail. I just use about 10 bandaids a day LOL he licks them off and I put one right back on. Glad I found this forum.
Avatar n tn I've had bed bugs before, I would get bites on the back of my legs near my rear, and on my stomach and back mostly. They would itch, but mostly at night...my guess is because that's when they were biting. The bumps looked anything from a small pimple to a mosquito bite and they were usually in clusters.
Avatar n tn I have been using it for about 3-4 weeks now and the little bumps on my penis head have gone away but now i have noticed an itchy bump on the side of my penis which is a bit bigger.. also there is a bump on the edge of my penis head that had peeled and gone away for a few days and re-appeared in the exact same spot which seems to have formed as a bump/scar(not as itchy)... ...i have very itchy bumps on my inner thighs and butt cheeks that seem to be getting worse.
Avatar n tn my 5 year old dog has had a scab on her right left leg.. The groomer always mentioned it, well she pulled it off the other day. I looked and it was an actual hole in her skin. I cleaned it with a q-tip and it was somewhat clean. The scab was a long soft plug.. I am concerned could this be cancer? She has another one growing this quickly in the same hole.. She wasnt in pain when the groomer twisted it off.. I dont know why she would have done that, I was annoyed.
Avatar n tn I have a dog, Cappy, who is a 1 year old beagle that we got from a shelter back in February of this year. He was a puppy mill dog before he went to the shelter, and is missing a paw on his front right leg. He was otherwise deemed healthy and has had two checkups since we got him. Lately, we have noticed some changes in him.
Avatar m tn She caught a baby mouse earlier this morning before I noticed the bumps!!! But bumps are only on her back and sides not her neck or mouth or face.. At first I thought it was ants she sun bathes near ant hills or loves to bury bones...
Avatar m tn I have been having the same problem on my arms around the fore-arm, elbow area, and legs (i have a HUGE one on my leg thats red and looks like a spider bite.) I sprayed my room and washed my linens for fleas or bedbugs. which is strange because no one else in the household is getting bit, and the dog doesn't have fleas. I have tryed lancing one of them, i just saw blood pretty much, not pus. I have taken antihistamines but no result. any ideas?
Avatar n tn About a week ago I noticed a small bump on my dog's neck, just below where her collar sits. It was just barley raised, but its gotten larger and is now about the size of a pencil eraser, perhaps a bit smaller. It's the same color as her skin and is a little darker around the edges. Seems to be filled with puss or something. She is a five year old Yorki poo and doesn't seem to be acting any different, and the bumps doesn't seem to bother her. And ideas as to what it could be?
