Scab On Nose

[lawz]

Hi
Ive checked beau this morning and she has a scab on nose.
I noticed it a week or so ago and thought she may have just got scratched.
The hair folicles is growing theough it and is slightly lumpy in texture. Ive attached pics to help. It doesnt bother her at all to touch.
With that said i will be taking her to vet to get it checked....i thought ringworm but it tends to be circular hense the name doeant it?

My Taffy had something similar. She had a harmless fatty growth. My vet and I decided to not do anything about it unless it got worse, which it never did, as an operation in such a sensitive spot would have been rather tricky.

I agree that it is not ringworm and that it also doesn't look like the usually harmless mild fungal nose strip, which is pretty common.

So i should be ok in just monitering it and play it by here.
Thank you @Wiebke

I would still get a diagnosis from your vet first whether it is actually a papilloma. We can only guess from a picture, but not diagnose.
