| Bump in ear!? Fiona has this little red bump in her ear, right on the inside flap. She has not been scratching at it, or shaking her head, and it doesnt seem to be getting any bigger. I'm not sure what it could be? I don't know if it's an in grown hair from when I groomed her, and I tried to shave some of her hair, or if its something else. I have put neosporion on it, and it didnt seem to help. Anyone else ever had an issue with this!?

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | Bumps here and there (i.e. skin tags, moles, etc) are not uncommon. They can also sometimes get little cysts or warts or pimples. Since it is inside her ear, and sometimes that area gets oily, it could be a clogged pore that is a bit irritated - and it may just work itself out. If it were me and if it weren't bothering, I'd probably give it a couple weeks and re-assess.

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | It probably wouldn't hurt anything, and it may help. If you have a hydrocortisone/antibiotic cream - the hydro may help decrease inflammation.

| Well, I had some Mal-Otic ear drops, which are good with irritated skin as well, and it only worked for a little bit. I"ll try using warm compresses on her tonight! Thanks again!!!
