Little pig's lump has got bigger. Went to the vet 6 months ago and she thought it was a fatty lump. Been back today as it has grown and is harder she now thinks it could be a tumour so we discussed removing it. She said we could do it now whilst he is young and fit or take the risk and leave it. It could be more difficult if it continues to grow and he is older.
So have agreed to go ahead. She is a recognised GP expert do not really vey worried re the op but with a busy full time job I am worried re the aftercare . The op is next Tues when she treats small furries but I am away for a few days from the Saturday so would have to leave him in DD 17s care.
Should I wait 3 more weeks until I would be around more? And what am I likely to need to do? Big pig is going along as company for less stress but would they be able to be together after. Vet says yes but I will need to use towels and not hay oregazorb til wound is healed.
