Found a lump on my boys foreleg last week which started out as a headless pink lump and the a lump of hair fell out and it developed a scab on the top. About the size of a small pea which started to shrink abit and the go back to same size. Salt water and sudo cream di nothing so vets checked it tonight and after talking through everything it could be a reaction to a flea bite. Hes partial to hunting out hedgehogs and carrying them about until i get to him and get him to drop em. Result is 7 days on fuciderm gel(12 bloody quid plus vat) and i have to wear gloves to give it...then he licks it... But for anyone else worried about lumps this is what it looks like. About size of pea and squishy in skin.

Could be. Hope he feels better soon. Never fun when they have reactions like that.
