I'm having a panic. Yesterday I noticed Fiver's top lip was a tiny bit swollen. I had a good look and it seems like he's somehow rubbed the fur off his tip lip and round the side of his mouth. It just looked redder and tiny bit swollen compared to the other side.
Sorry if the image is huge. I'm doing this on my phone and pretty much have no idea what I'm doing.
Since Fiver seemed fine in himself I figured I'd just wait and see.
Well today it does look worse and more swollen. I'm starting to worry that it's nodular myxi. :'( I have no experience with it and have no idea if this is what it looks like but I can't think what else would cause this. The vets aren't open until Tuesday and the OOH are pretty useless, however if it gets any worse I won't hesitate to take him. He's fine in himself and he is eating with no problem. He's on 0.5mls of metacam twice daily for arthritis just in case that has any bearing on the matter.
