My puppy has weird bumps on its skin, but acts normal. What is it?

Question

What are these bubbles on the puppy? He was born December 4th. He is walking around and playing normal.

These lumps could be several things including a herniation or enlarged lymph nodes. Your vet will have to do an x-ray to see what is underneath the skin and possibly even an aspirate (taking sample from the underlying tissue) to confirm what this is. I do hope that you are able to get this investigated soon with your vet. If this is a hernia, then the vet may be able to tell what the structure/organ is that is herniated just from the x-ray. Best wishes and take care.
