Raised skin on neck

[MACK003]

Hi there,


This is my first post, hope it works out. Looking for support about my English Bulldog's health. He has a raised lumpy area that runs along the length of his neck. It is pink in colour and has raised small pimples that are white and grey in colour but don't seem to contain fluid. If you grab at the area it's like a raised chunky ridge along the length of his neck.
I did some research and it seems like it may be a food allergy (as localized in neck), otherwise I have seen information that may be consistent with eczema, maybe as a result on an allergy?


Has anyone seen/experienced this before?


Many thanks,


Crystal

Can you post a picture so we can see what it looks like?

Welcome! We will certainly try to help if we can. As Manydogs said, if you can post a picture it would be really helpful.

Please let us know what kind of food he's eating and what meds he's on. Could the irritation be caused or exacerbated by his harness/collar?

Could you give more info.... age of pup, brand and type of food and a picture would be very helpful.
many here have great experience and can provide some insight to help get your baby healed up

Agree... pics would be great if possible. Does he wear a collar all the time, what is the collar made of? Also do you do any tick prevention that goes in that area?
