Hi and thanks for posting on Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Bumps that appear suddenly under the skin sound a lot like hives which is an indication of an allergic reaction. There may be other causes as well such as a bacterial infection. I would recommend Ty see a veterinarian right away. If they are hives, Ty will need a steroid and antihistamine injection or other medications as necessary.
