1038917 tn?1253499120 My dog Champ who is a yellow lab is 7 years old. He has a lump on his back leg, like on his hip. It is the size of a golf ball, it seems a little swishy but I am not for sure. I noticed it about 1 month ago and just didnt think anything of it, thinking it would go away, well its not gone. He has an apt. this Friday with his vet. I am wondering what it could be, the first thought that comes to my mind is cancer! I am wondering if there is anything else it could be?

Avatar n tn My 13 y.o doberman, has a growing lump on his neck, his liver enzymes were elevated. Could this be a lipomsw, or lymphoma?
Avatar f tn my dog has similar, my dog passed it on to my other dog after having kennel cough or some kind of horrible flue. My vet looked at the eye and said not to worry, doesn't look serious but i think it is more and doing research, i cannot narrow it down. Along with the eyelid bumps, they both have occasional minor gagging. I think it is some kind of virus, guess I will have to have blood test?
Avatar m tn my dog has a large lump growing out of the base of one of her nipples and it doesn't seem to bother her. it is soft on the outside and the inside is hard.
Avatar f tn Two months ago i had a simple mastectomy with sentinel node biopsy. Stage 1, no lymph involvement so no chemo or radiation. Since then, I have a hard area growing immediately under the incision. It looks like a "hot dog" under the skin. It runs the entire length of the incision, sticks out about an inch from my chest and is more than an inch deep at its "tallest" spot.

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!
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 My friends dog is a 9 year old cockapoo, and the other day I noticed she had a red bloody spot in her fur behind her head, on the backside of her neck. The lump is about the size of a walnut; hard and leaking small amounts of blood. My friends not sure if the dog scratched it to make it bleed, so she took a close look at the sore spot and gently squeezed it getting more blood and puss out of it. She then washed it with antiseptic wash and covered it.
Avatar f tn Since there’s a big chance that it may recur, I did not take it out and the lump stop growing. Last year, I found out there is another lump in my right breast, and it grows fast! Now it has been less than 6 months, it grows bigger than the old one. I can feel the differences between the two lumps. This one is harder and sometimes painful. I scheduled an ultrasound next week with the doctor. I’m afraid that this time I have to do a surgery to remove them.
Avatar n tn my dog has a lump on the side of her neck...not in the middle--more under her cheek. she is a boston terrier and is overweight and has a couple of soft fatty tumors on her body but this lump on her neck is new. I just noticed it today and its abt the size of a golfball, soft and she doesn't cry when i squeeze it gently. what could this be? It doesn't seem to have a head like an abscess would.

Avatar m tn My dog Pepsi is an 11 year old black lab. She has a fatty lump on her side, but recently I've found a hard lump on her hind leg about the size of a pea. I've also noticed that sometimes she's been holding it funny, but I'm not sure if she had just twisted her leg funny. Is this cancer?
Avatar f tn This one Istop huge and red and hard. My husband said he has noticed the dog getting a small lump there lately but then going away. But nothing of this size. Please email or text for picture if you have medical knowledge.
480371 tn?1208207156 Hi, so I have a 9 year old Black Lab who has had a cyst or a sty growing on his upper eyelid. It's grown slightly in the past year, and there was one night when my mother said she saw that the sty was bleeding slightly. We can't take him to the vet until the middle of June, but does anyone know if this is something that would require immediate medical attention? Thanks!
Avatar m tn Hi there. about four weeks ago i developed a large red lump on my neck. it was on the right side and is just below the middle of my neck. the red lump went down within a week but has left a small pea sized lump that is hard but painless underneath the skin with no discolouration. could this be a sign of cancer? im thinking cause it came out like a spot it is probaly a boil, but would that leave a lump?
Avatar m tn For a lump, on a Bichon which is a very small dog -that's big. You can't guess what it is. Only the biopsy will tell you that. Get the biopsy done as soon as you can. If it is cancer, it needs to come off as soon as possible. He might need the whole outer part of his ear removed. That will make him look a little odd, but will be worth it, to get rid of this lump, whatever it is. It may not be cancer. My dog had a (much smaller) lump removed from her lip a few years ago.
Avatar n tn My dog has had this bubble on her but for almost 2 years now. I thought it was a tumor, It still can be. here is a picture imgur.com/a/5niUD l Every time i look up anal gland on a dog they all look different so i dont think its that, plus i tried to express her anal gland and i wanst able to.
516285 tn?1211547390 Moderate bleeding went on for 3 days, then wound healed. Two days ago a large lump appered under the wound, growing in size all the time, though not at a fast rate, is now about size of goose egg and area is growing in size. Went back to vet "leave it alone" come back if it really is large. I am concerned, I'm off again to vet tonight. He doesnt seem to be in pain, and he is eating ok. Is the swelling normal after the trauma of a bite ??
Avatar m tn My 16yr old Schiperkke was backed over by a neighbor on a cell phone. Dog went to vet and x-rays revealed nothing broken,"Her fat may have saved her life". While that is very funny, after a long recovery, she still has a mass where the tire pinched her butt to the ground.She gets along OK but now has poop sticking to her fur,as her tail is no longer inside her tail flap,(Skips don't have tails).So I deal with that. But a year later?, the flappy large area is still there. The Vet.
Avatar n tn My dog has about a 1.5" round lump on her abdomen on one side. It is not firm, very soft. There are darker spots on it, and it has yellow crust on it. It's not a smooth lump, but a bit bumpy. I havent a clue what it is, and we can't call the vet until Monday. I have a photo. She is a 2 year old lab.
Avatar f tn Tuesday night we came home and noticed a large lump on her side, she could barely walk. My husband got her out side and she had a bowel movement (she ate her dinner @ 5) after she came in she laid on the bathroon floor and just looked very sad. i decided I would take her to the vet in the morning. About an hour later she was laying on the floor in the dining room and was barely breathing. We put her on a blanket and she dies within a half hour.
Avatar f tn 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.
