Sorry hun, I dont have the foggiest.

Nell has small lumps, one on her leg one on her head and one just inside her ear which she keeps catching with her nails, they seem to flare up and then settle, the vet said they were worts, but a friends dog had the same but more and they were cancerous, if it flares up again I would see a vet I have not had Nells removed because she is an old lady,how old is your dog?

The lumps feel hard and round when gently squeezed,and under the skin,but visable on top also,is this the same as yours?

sounds like a cyst

Sounds similar to Nells as her lumps can weep a bit settle for a while then flare up again, I would keep an eye on it and if it starts to get bigger and harder it might just be worth getting it removed I would'nt even bother getting a biopsy first as it would cost extra money, hope it settles and then you can stop worrying I now its hard as I was alarmed with Nells, they dont seem to bother her except the one in her ear when she catches it with her claws
