Carson has a tiny lump just on his back near his right leg that I noticed a few months ago. It was visible when he lost some of his hair on his back when he had skin issues. It was very tiny so I wasn't really concerned and decided to just monitor it. Today when I was taking photos of them and was checking up on their overall condition, I felt it became bigger. Still not very big but like a little bit bigger than a pea. It's kind of located around the soft area above the leg, near the bum. It wasn't bothering him though when I was feeling and touching it. I would probably be taking him to the vet tomorrow to get it looked at.
 
Took Carson to the vet this morning. Vet said it is abscess. She put needle in it to check what's inside and she said there is a bit of abscess on the needle. So she prescribed him baytril and metacam for a week. She said it's up to me if I want it removed now but for her, since it's only small, to just monitor it for now and see if the antibiotic will do anything.
