| Help with a lump!!!!!!!!! My little guy has a lump above his hind leg. I had found it once before but it wasn't near the size it is now. He did have some fleas (man they were bad here this year) so I was thinking maybe it is just a swollen gland. Is anyone able to help me?! scared mommy |

| Has he had shots recently or before when you noticed the lump? Some shots can cause a lump for quite a while afterwards. If not then maybe you should call your vet to have it looked at. |

| Well, if he has not recently had a booster shot then maybe you should see your vet or at least give them a call. |

| Is it on the outside of the skin or a little ball under the skin? If it's the latter is could be a cyst. I would certainly have it checked to put my mind at ease and my baby out of harms way. Especially if it has grown. Doubt it is from a flea bite. Since he has had no injections in the area recently it's best to have him vet checked. Good luck, Let us know, |
