Calizzy Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 I just noticed this red bump on my dog's skin. It's probably a cm diameter and tall. She is not sensitive to me touching it. It looks like a giant pimple. Should I have it looked at or give it a few days? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katy Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 I discovered something similar on my dog a few months ago on a holiday weekend. Google mentioned a few things, one of which was a bug bite with an allergic reaction & scratching. I watched it for a few days & it had shrunk dramatically by the time the vet office opened. But it was tender and he didn’t want anyone to touch it. So idk, I’d probably go get it checked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pawz4me Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 Unless she's scratching it or it seems to be bothering her in some other way then I'd just watch it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MercyA Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 Could be a cyst. If it's not itchy or painful I'd keep an eye on it. Definitely take her in if it grows. I'd have it looked at eventually but it's likely not urgent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
