>From: Thomas and Tracy Lunt <[log in to unmask]> >Subject: Lump on back Based on where you are describing the location, and the size, my first question would be "Was this ferret recently vaccinated?". If so, it is a fairly common occurence for a pea sized lump to form at the vaccination site. Not being a doctor or person of medical persuasion, I do not know the reason why, but I do know that it happens, fairly regularly, and if that is the cause, it is nothing to be concerned with. A visit to the vet is in order just to rule out any other possibility though. -Anne [Posted in FML issue 2056]
