Swelling on dogs neck
Hi everyone!
My 10-year-old Chihuahua started two weeks ago with a swelling on the right side of his neck, vomiting and very lethargic. We took him to a vet, and they started him on prednisone and antibiotics and told us to give it some time.
Unfortunately, the swelling started getting worse although the vomiting stopped, and he began choking on his food and making strange breathing noises, so we took him to another vet for more testing. They did X-rays, bloodwork to check for things like lymphoma, lymph nodes, and salivary gland issues, along with a Fine Needle Aspirate (FNA). So far, the bloodwork and X-rays have come back normal, and we are still waiting on the FNA results.
It’s been a few days now, and the swelling has started on the left side of his neck too and his still very lethargic and can’t bark. Has anyone experienced something similar?
