I just noticed Luca had a swollen gland on one side of his jaw. It's like a ball the size of a marble. It's noticeably bigger than the one other side. Any body else ever have this issue?

That's so strange I just saw a sweet bully on fb who had a swollen salivary gland... Started small and got progressively larger over the next few days! It became enormous so keep an eye on it.

Their glands can also swell from vaccines.

The vet said he didn't feel anything too out of the ordinary. He said Lucia's gland are fairly normal. The one side may have swelled up a little more than the other on account of Luca's chin acne. Apparently the chin acne drains out into his neck area and triggers inflammation of the glands. So antibiotics have been prescribed to remove the chin acne. Last time we gave him pills for the acne they cleared up immediately ill just have to keep an eye on the glands to make sure they don't get any bigger.
