Worried about Ellie
« on: March 26, 2008, 02:01:39 PM »
Okay - Ellie, little princess, has had a lump on her side for some time now.  The vet originally said it was dermal displasia?  and not to worry too much but to monitor for growth and changes in texture. It as about the size of a 50pence peice

I am getting worried as it seems to be growing quite signifncantly (I think it has lmost doubled in size and has a really bobbly surface (like lot of little air bubbles).  It does not cause her any pain / discomfort when it is examined and she does not worry / scratch at it.

I am now imagining anything under the sun.  Does anyone else have a cocker with this problem?  I will try to get some photos tonight as she has recently been clipped and it is easier to see.  I have measured it so know it has grown and not just because she is clipped off and it is more obvious.

I think I would take her back to the vet to get it checked as it has grown. Hope it's nothing to worry about but you need to go for own peace of mind.

Well he said monitor for growth and changes and it has grown so I would go back to the vet and tell him.  Like Julie said, at least it will give you peace of mind :blink:
