I can feel a lump

[Jules]

Hi all

New mum has now been spayed (couple of weeks ago) all went fine but i can now feel quite a big lump under one of her nipples, it is quite hard and wondered is this normal or do i have a problem on my hands???

Any advice appreciated :D

I'd take her back to the vet I'm afraid Jules. Could simply be mastitis - my Smudge had that after having her kits and being spayed. Let's hope that's what it is - treatable with anti-bi's.

Could she have a blocked milk duct? I would run her along to the vet just for a check over for your own peace of mind.

I was going to say mastitis as well. My Lily has just had that and her kittens are only 2 weeks old :roll: A quick shot of antibiotics at the vets and an ongoing homeopathic course of treatment seems to have done the trick though ;)

I'd definitely take her to the vets to be sure.
