I'm going to try to explain this as best as I can, without sounding too sick....
My mine Dachshund was lying next to me sleeping on his back like normal and I noticed a red bump on his privates. I checked it out a little closer, and it looks like he has a pea sized cyst inside his “shaft”. I took a needle and nicked the top of it to see if I could get some of the drainage out of it but nothing came out and I didn't want to irritate it anymore that it already was. You can see the top of it coming out of the shaft, and if you pull the flap aside a little bit you can see the rest. It almost looks like his thing sticking out, but it#%92s not. I don#%92t know how long it#%92s been there, because it would be very easily mistaken as the tip of his . Its pea sized, and seems slightly painful to him. I can't really put anything on it due to where it's located.
He's been peeing okay...should I not worry about it and let it heal on it's own?
Should I call the vet?
Does it look like a cyst to you guys?
I have some antibiotics here left over for Zoe from her infection on her incision, should I give dyllan a few of them?
Here are some pictures, don't get grossed out. It looks like it's his "thing" but it's not, it's the bump.
Regular view, that's the bump not his thing.
Ditto
pulling back the skin
again
Anyone seen anything like this?
