Swollen Face

Topaz has a swelling on the left side of his face. We just took him to the vet on Thursday and everything looked good (Kbr and heartworm test both good as well). I am assuming it’s a bug bite or sting, so we gave him 50mg of Benadryl to see if it goes down.

It literally came out of no where which is why I’m thinking it’s a bug bite.

He did have a bump but the doctor looked at it and said it was hard like bone and seemed to be either his normal or on the bone. We may do an xray later on to see if it’s just his skull or something else.

So we’re going to keep an eye on him for now. He’s horrible at the vet and gets ALL worked up so we don’t want to have to take him in for anything if we don’t have to.

Poor baby! Will update later with a picture too.
