My dog has a lump after shots, but not at the injection site. What is it?

Question

Hello doctor. Recently on last weekend my dog got his yearly rabies and parvo shots and by the next morning I started to feel a lump on the side of his body. And this is not the place where the shots were given. I'm really very tense and want to know what is this?

I would be pretty concerned, As this is pretty big if it has just grown in a week. I would highly encourage you to have him evaluated by your veterinarian soon. This could be an infection, a benign tumor, or even a cancerous tumor. The faster you can find out what it is the more likely it is to be solved. Best of luck and I hope he improves soon! Thank you for using Pet Coach.
