A lump on my Guinea Pigs neck

21 14:13:39

Question
I have a new who is about 4 or 5 months old piggy named Lilly,  I have noticed she has a swollen lump on the bottom of her neck near her jaw. I am very worried and I am wondering if this is something serious like a tumor or a swollen gland. Please help me figure out what is wrong with my piggy.

Answer
It sounds as though it is a tumor! I would call your vet in the morning and ask them about it and possibly take her in. Also is the lump hard or soft, or maybe watery?
Thank you for sending me your question and please feel free to ask anyother questions!
