My dog has a white skin tag or cyst on his lip. Should I be concerned?

It could be an infection, cyst, or a mass. Have your vet take a look at it to determine the exact cause. Your vet can do a needle aspirate to diagnose and then determine the best way to treat. She may need an antibiotic, anti-inflammatory, or it may need to be removed.

I agree that it looks like a skin tag. Around the mouth is a common place to see them, and they usually do grow a little bit, but not usually very much. I think it is most likely a benign skin tag but the only way to know for sure would be to remove it and send it out for biopsy. If it changes dramatically then I would recommend this. Best of luck and thank you for using Pet Coach.

Based on the appearance of this lesion and Baldrick's young age, I would guess that it's most likely either an epulis (https://www.petcoach.co/article/epulis-a-common-oral-tumor/) or an oral papilloma. The challenge with any lump or bump is that the only surefire way to diagnose the issue is with a biopsy. Both of these lesions are benign, but oral papillomas are contagious to other dog due to their viral origin and epulides can grow significantly if left in place. While this issue certainly isn't an emergency by any stretch of the imagination, I still think it's worth taking Baldrick to his vet in the coming weeks to have it checked out. I hope that everything goes well!

Stella's skin lesion could be a benign or malignant mass, papilloma (wart-like lesion), or skin tag. Depending upon the type of lesion, surgery may not be needed even if you decided to pursue it. Most skin lesions are not painful unless they grow rapidly or open and become ulcerative. It is worth taking Stella to her vet to aspirate the lesion (using a needle to draw out a few cells that can be examined microscopically - this can generally be performed awake in cooperative dogs) and then determine this lesion is even worth worrying about. If the lesion grows rapidly, bleeds, or Stella begins to rub or scratch at it, these can be signs of discomfort. I hope that all goes well and that this helps to address your concerns!

This growth needs to be checked and analysed as there are many conditions and types of tumors that could look like that. take her to the vet, they will perform a fine needle aspiration on the growth and send it to the lab for analysis. when the result comes, the vet will advise what needs to be done according to the diagnosis.
