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.
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.
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.
I recently noticed that my dog looked like he had a lump on his head on one side of his face. The vet advised that this was not a lump but his bone and that the muscle tissueon the side of his face has wasted away due to nerve damage in his Jaw. He had aan operation to move a growth inside his mouth last year could this be cause of the nerve damage , the nerve being severed or damage during the operation. The vet has now put him on steroids .
For the past maybe two years I have had charlie horses occuring in my neck. Or maybe its in my throat because when a charlie horse comes about, if I swallow, it tightens it more. The on-set of the charlie horse I have noticed has varied. I had one once after coughing up some water I had swallowed while swimming. Another time I was playing with my dog on my bed (laying on my back) and extended my head back and a charlie horse started.
if you have already gone to the vet, i would go back. recently my dog had a lump removed from her upper back. i had gone to the vet after i noticed a lump. It was moveable, and the vet thought it was cancer. i brought her to a specialist who thought it was not cancer, that it was a hemotoma. He told me if it grow, spreads, etc we need to have it tested. we had it tested with a needle, and they found cancer cells.
The dog may have a permanent bend in the erect ear, but the pocket of fluid has not returned - been at least two months. Our dog has also developed lumps on his face and neck, just two so far. They were removed with surgery and biopsy done. No cancer and these have not returned.
I have no way of knowing if this relates, but it does suggest there are more aggressive measures that may be indicated.
Hi. I noticed a small lump on the side of my neck today, under my skin. My smoking recently picked up, after getting a construction job, so the lump is really freaking me out. I know I have to go to see a doctor, but am uncomfortable going to my family doctor. Does anyone know if walk in clinics can get the job done? I'm not sure if they'll have all the equipment necessary to check.
I have developed a lump on the left side of my adams apple, even with it (not above or below). The lump is solid and i can move it a little bit. My throat is not sore, doesnt hurt when i swallow, doesnt hurt if I touch around it, only if I touch the lump. Then it hurts very much. I developed this same lump about 6 months ago and the doctor dismissed it as stress/job related. It did go away a few days later. Any ideas as to what causes this or what it could be?
Hi,
I have the pressure/discomfort in my collarbone area as well. It can be felt in the front of my neck sometimes. Often, I feel a lump in my throat but I believe that this symptom is anxiety related because I was put on Clonazapam for a month and the lump went away. As far as the neck tightness (feeling of pressure within a blood vessel), I can't explain what is going on!
Did the Vet check for any other swellings under his front legs in the armpit area and in the groin area. These are other locations of lymph glands.
Did the Vet give him a thorough dental exam looking for any infection, cracked teeth, etc.
so, what did the Vet think it was and why did he prescribe antibiotics? The meds mY be upsetting his stomach and the Vet can give some medication for nausea. You can use Pepcid but I would check with the Vet first.
I have one lump at the side of the neck...I asked my doctor and he said its a swollen lymph node and prescribed antibiotics...The course is finished but the lump is still there...It has not increased in size since a month..I had no signs of infections...My doctor said its nothing serious because i am just 13 and have no symptoms like night sweat or wight loss...Well i just got freaked out when i felt a lymph node one the other side of the swollen one...
I found a lump in the bottom of my throat on the right hand side. It is slightly smaller than a marble and slightly tender. It moves up and down when I swallow. I have no thyroid symptoms. I I went to the doctor today and he said that the lump was a vascular formation?
That makes no sense to me. It seems rather large to be a vascular. How could he tell the difference between vascular and a thyroid nodule?
my 2 year old lab bull terrier cross ***** has a huge swelling on the side of her face/cheek which started as a 3 cm loose lump in the tissue below her jaw b eside her wind pipe.. She has had it before while she was with someone else. Her lip is also swollen along that side of her mouth. she doesnt appear to be in any discomfort. The swelling is very firm and she doesnt complain when it is squeezed slightly. Hany ideas comments would be appreciated. cheers.
My dog has a little lump on the inner eyelid, that hasn't changed in about 1 year and doesn't seem to affect him at all. But in the last month he has developed a lump on the outer edge of the eyelid that is slowly getting bigger. I have signed him up for pet insurance, but I still have a couple of weeks before I can take him to the vet and make a claim. Can anyone enlighten me on what the lump might be?
Thanks in advance.
My dog woke up the other morning not being able to stand up And was falling over every time she tried to walk.Now she has a really hard lump on the side of her neck right underneath her ear And she tilts her head for head to the other side.She's been eating a little bit and drinking and urinating I'm not sure if she has had a bowel movement Because unfortunately I haven't been able to see it.
