Strange Lump


Recommended Posts

Would really appreciate any thoughts on this lump on my dogs leg. It has been slowly growing over the last month. It causes him no pain even when it is touched. It is about 1cm wide and a couple of mm high.

Definately a sebaceous cyst which will need sorting.Give the cyst a wash with warm water get some tissues and gently squeeze the pus out.There should be a sac in there so that will need pulling out with forceps,or it will keep filling up.Make sure it cleaned properly,then allow 48hrs to heal before working the dog.

Oh and keep your face outta the way when squeezing the cyst. :thumbs: :laugh:

How have you gone on with this buddy?.

Gave it a clean and then a squeeze like you said. No pus came out but a little clear fluid and then blood. Didn't pull any sack out. Going to have a look again tomorrow.

 

Thanks everyone for the advice
