Lump/Bump on dog's ear
My 7 year old Dalmatian, Duchess, has a bump on the inside of her ear flap.
It has been there for about 3 months. It is very tender, about 1/4in in size, and has a white hard crust on top of it. I have tried washing it with a warm soapy washcloth to get the crust off and using hydrogen peroxide and then putting antibiotic ointment on it. It doesn't grow in size or change in any way. It is just there and very tender. I am hoping that someone here knows what it is and how to treat it. Also, is it safe to put a pain relieving ointment on it? Thanks so much, Duchess |

You need to take her to vet. It could be all kinds of things even cancer
but you won't know until you see a vet. Celeste wrote in message . .. My 7 year old Dalmatian, Duchess, has a bump on the inside of her ear flap. It has been there for about 3 months.

Thanks. I have an appt. for Monday to have it checked. I just wanted to
see if someone knew what it may be and if I could do something to make her feel better. Hugs "Spot" wrote in message news:xE03h.1559$MO6.1475@trndny06... You need to take her to vet.
