   Hi there-
   It may be a seroma- which is not dangerous and with time, can go away on its own. You may want to call the vet and explain the situation to see what they say. Having said that, I would still monitor it very closely. I assume that she is on or was on antibiotics? When is your follow up visit to your vet? If it is soon and everything stays relatively the same, you should be safe to wait until then to speak to the vet. If anything changes, pain, lethargy, warm to the touch, etc. I would call the vet immediately. Best of luck!!????????

      Thank you so much for your quick reply! I have sent the Vet photos of the incision/lump. However, since it is the weekend, they won’t reply back to me until they’re open for business on Monday morning. I was not scheduled for a routine check-up, but I have been in contact with the Vet who performed her surgery. I also have been doing research on seromas and will keep an eye out for any alarming symptoms. So far, she is acting very normal and the site doesn’t bother her. I have restricted activities by placing her in a small enclosed pen with blankets, so she can rest and limit any extreme activity (since she does want to play, run, and jump around). Hopefully this will speed up her recovery and the lump will go down soon. Thank you again! ????????
