My Rabbit Has Hard, Popping Lumps on Legs. What Are They?

My rabbit has a hard growth on its back, it's hard but I do not think it's painful since the Rabbit is just relaxed. What's your advice of treatment?

Hi, and thanks for your question. Although a picture of it would help to determine the underlying nature of the problem, this kind of lump/growth needs to be ideally assessed by your veterinarian to have a definitive and specific answer. Usually there are two ways your vet can do that a part from examining it directly during physical examination. A biopsy can be taken under local or general anesthetic, otherwise a smaller sample through a fine needle can be aspirated (this technique is called FNA= fine needle aspiration). Differentials include skin cysts, infections, benign or more sinister type of tumors. Hope this answer was helpful, but please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further.

Hi! I have a female 5 month old brown colored rabbit. I’ve felt a bump around her ear I can’t see it but I can feel it and when I touch it, it feels like it’s going down. I don’t know what this could be I’ve searched on google. Please help!

Your vet may want to perform an FNA (fine needle aspiration) or a biopsy to sample the bump and determine its underlying nature. Differentials would include skin cysts, infections, benign or more malignant type of tumors.

3 months ago I noticed a lump the size of a grape under his right hind leg, I talked to my vet and she said I should only worry if it started to get bigger. Since then it didn't grow up, i'm certain it's an abscess. I want a second opinion: should I

My rabbit is a mini lop ear, she has a large growth on her butt under her tail. She looks healthy and is eating and drinking water just fine. What's wrong?

I've found a soft lump under my rabbits ear and I was wondering if you possibly knew roughly what it could be? There isn't any fur missing And he isn't behaving differently.

My dog has a bump on his leg, and the hair around it seems to have fallen off. Is this something bad? He doesn’t seem hurt by it, I haven’t noticed a change in energy nor appetite, it’s been there for maybe a week. What is it?

Hi. My rabbit has a lump of skin poking out near his left leg. I have no idea how to deal with it and I am very nervous it will never go away. I don't think it bothers him but I really would like to know what it is and see if I/we can cure it. Thank

Hi Ellie. Thank you for using Boop by Petco! So sorry Charlie is having this issue. Unfortunately, I don't think we will be able to help you much without a photo. Can you please post again with some photos and some more information - like is the lump of skin hard or soft? Does the lump have a wound or scab on it? How long has it been there on his leg? Any injury to that leg that you know about? All I can say without photos or more information is that a lump could be anything from an abscess (infection) to a tumor. Even with a photo I am not sure we would be able to tell you much. Lumps are things that need to be examined by a vet in person so really, your best bet is going to be to take Charlie to your vet for an exam. However, if you want to post again we will try to see if we can give you more information. Thank you.
