My dog has a pink bump on her eye. It's getting bigger. What is it?

Question

My dog has a pink bump on the outer corner of her eye… I noticed it about two weeks ago. Last week it had a scab because I think she might have scratched it too hard. This week it actually looks a little bigger. Im not sure what it is or what I should do. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Small (up to 22lb) | Female | unspayed | 1 year and 1 month old | 13 lbs

Hello, thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. This bump could be a benign cyst that may go away on it's own but it could also be a tumor (cancer) of some kind. There is no way to tell for sure just by looking at a photo. I suggest you take Naya to your vet to have this checked. I can tell you that this does not appear to be from scratching or another type of trauma/injury. Hope this helps. Best wishes.
