 Elbow Hygroma
Havoc has developed a Hygroma on his right elbow. It seems to have stabilised at about golf-ball size, and isn't bothering him in the least. I'm not sure how he got it, could be the "sleeping on hard surfaces" because he shreds everything in the crate, so doesn't get anything except for a fairly tough rubber cow mat... Or could be from an injury, because he is growing in different directions and is a klutz right now.
My vet gave me three options:
1) drain it and wrap his leg - it is very likely to come back, and draining is also a chance to introduce an infection.
2) surgically implant a drain, and flush the thing daily - again some chance of infection, but it will stay flat and will hopefully heal in time.
3) surgically remove it and the surrounding tissues - best chance of resolving it permanently, according to my vet.
For now, I've chosen to do nothing untill I do some research and lern enough to make a good decision. Do any of you have any experience with that sort of thing, any advice? I am reading everything I can, would love to hear opinions, suggestions, treatments that did or did not work. Anything. |
