My dog has a bump on her head for weeks. Should I take her to the vet?

Question

My dog has this bump on her head, and it has not gone away and it has been about 3 weeks. I was wondering if someone could give me an idea on if I should get it checked out. Pet's info: Dog | Jack Russell Terrier | Female

This is likely a small cyst/blocked gland and likely benign. Continue to monitor for any increase in size or change in color and ask your vet to check it out at her next wellness exam or earlier if anything changes
