Hi!
One of my fosters recently developed a lump under her neck.
I called the vet and she guessed that it was an abcess and said to wait a few days for it to burst or to bring her in for a check up. Unfortunately today is non -working day for us so i can't take her until tomorrow anyway.
The lump seems to have expanded to the other side of her neck so now she almost looks like she has mumps.
She doesn't seem to be in any obvious pain or discomfort and is eating though not as much as before.
In fact she seems in better spirits today than she was yesterday.
Is it an abcess? Or is it some sort of lymph node problem?
She is also on eye drops to clear up an eye problem that she has been having lately. It's not a URI. It's just some sort of bacterial infection. At first i thought that it was an allergic reaction to the drops... But the vet din't seem to think that was it.
I'm proably worrying for nothing but it's going to be a long day for me not knowing what exactly could be the matter.
