Myrtle has a skin lesion

I have just noticed a weird lesion on Myrtles back. I am going to book in ANOTHER vet visit but I was just wondering if anyone knew what it might be?

Its dry and it doesn't appear to be irritating her -- hence why i have only just spotted it.

I am just having so much bad luck at the minute, with Finns Mites as well.

I have checked her fur and no sign of mites that Finn has.

Has she recently had a vaccination/injection ? It looks like a local reaction to one or the other to me.

She has been spayed very recently so she may have had one from that. She is Mite, Tick and Flea protected also so I don't think its that.

Not sure weather to just keep an eye on it or take her to the vet. She's eating and pooping fine and not trying to scratch it at all.

It is probably a local reaction to an injection, especially if it was Baytril/Enrofloxacin

I'd give the Vet a call and tell them about the situation. They will let you know if you need to take her in to be checked over or if you should just keep an eye on it to make sure it is healing

Hi there :wave:

Gosh you're not having much luck at the moment, are you?

It's quite unusual to come back from the vets and a lesion to start afterwards like that, but not impossible.

It could be a reaction to an injection and I would be interested to see what the vet thinks. Whereabouts on her back is the lesion?

Its on her back.
I need to arrange a call with my vet and speak to him about Finn anyway and his reaction to the Drop On meds for his Mites. So I will add this in there too!

Nope not having much luck :lol:
