Help! Grease Gland Problem Or Something Else?
- Thread starter Seren Horrocks
- Start date
Hi and welcome
It is difficult to say from your picture whether you are dealing with a congested grease gland or something else. If it is not a grease gland, then you may want to see a vet.
Here is information on grease glands; both genders have them. They are generally more active in boars, but can occasionally also cause trouble in sows.
