Bella and I are sitting on the sofa watching TV. Today she hasn't been acting herself. Didn't get up when Terri or I got home. She ate, but then I noticed under her arm....she had been scratching and now it is swollen and the fur is caked like the skin had oozed some fluid and it dried.
Okay, so bath tomorrow. Well while sitting here I decided to massage her legs a little. She is always wanting me to scratch her hind end and legs, so I do a gentle massage and she is happy with this. Well on her back leg I can feel a lump. Now it isn't a knot or something like that. It is a bubble under the skin. It will actually roll a little while I feel the mass. It is a perfect bubble shape and about the diameter of a quarter.
I am now sick a little, what is going on? I am worried. Has anyone else ever had something like this? I am not sure if she is sick to begin with and this maybe her lymph nodes swollen, however would it be a perfect ball shape? I guess to the vets in the morning.
