possible hernia

any one had this or know if this is a hernia?

 

please provide a little more info. is this a pup or an adult female? How long has it been there or that you know of? Did you have this thing diagnosed by a DVM or a tech, some one with experience? If not this could easily be something else....

 

ive seen this befor but the guy was drunk

he said the dog was a hermi

but i thought that was a lil far fetched

 

If your female just ended a heat cycle, this could cause a little bloat. It doesnt look like a hernia, but it could just be the picture. Hernias usually look like a ball or an outty belly button. JMO

 

7 week old pup just noticed it today wasnt there2 days ago and it hasnt been to the vet yet, was told by someone that maybe its a hernia thats why im asking if it is or any ideals,its swelled all down her fallopian tube on one side feels like a small lump in it.

 

Well I have studied that pic and unless I can physicaly examin the area. I can not say if it is a hernia. Can you push it back in, like you would an imbilical hernia? It is possible that she developed a tear in that area. I don't see any indication that she may be having a reaction to like a bug bite, foriegn body to cause that type of swelling. 7 weeks old not likely to have or present cancer in the mamery chain.

 

Looks more like a blockage to me than a hernia, Take her in and get a few tests done and you will have your answer pretty quick.

Now another possibility is she may have tore a muscle or that and wasn't showing any signs and this is the swelling but I find it odd no bruising or that. I would take her into the vet and see what a couple tests reveal.

 

it pushes to the side when you push on it.

 

I think you very well may have a blockage on your hands there.

 

thanks for the imput old timer! hope thats what it is cause id think a hernia would be like one lump this is like 2 inchs long wtth a small lump.that helps ease my mind till i get to a vet.
