| Ooh! That looks nasty. Good thing you are seeing the vet. Hope it turns out benign.

| I can't tell if it's a growth of some sort? A wart ? A bite ? I'm so upset |

| I posted on your other thread. Definitely time for the vet, ASAP. The vet will be able to determine what it is and give you meds to give your girl relief.

| I'm so upset, my regular vet isn't open until tomorrow, and I will be taking her as soon as I wake up. I put some antibiotic cream on her (from a previous vet visit) and the redness has gone down considerably, but it looks a lot like a wart, very itchy though |

| I put her in a premature baby onsie and buttoned the bottom for now other than bathroom breaks, so she can't get to her tail. |

| I did see the vet, and she wasn't very helpful at all, was more concerned with $300 teeth cleaning than the lump. She couldn't give me any answer on what it could be. Wanted to do a needle biopsy, I said I wanted to give it a few days, I asked for her to be given a pain/anti inflammatory injection, and the swelling went down significantly |
