Answer :
Hi,
The picture is one of a “button-shaped”, red skin lump. It is impossible to tell you what it is precisely. However, I can tell you that it would be worth while knowing.
I recommend you visiti your local vet and request a fine needle aspiration and microscopic examination to determine whether it is a benign or malignant growth. From the aspîration, your vet might even be able to give you a precise diagnostic if the lump is:
- mast cell tumour
- histiocytoma
- spindle cell sarcoma
….
If it proves malignant, then surgical excision with wide margins, under general anaesthetic is the only advisable treatment.
Best wishes, Julien
