    What did they say the first time you took her in? Did they X-ray the lump?

    Did the vet just take a guess and wanted to try antibiotics first?

    I don't like that more are popping up.

    It honestly sounds more like cancer after that update of more lumps/bumps appearing....Did the vet just xray it the first time? Any plans of a biopsy?

    They didn't do x-rays. He just took a sample of the bump with a needle and looked at it under a microscope. We called but they said they just want to try another antibiotic. I really don't believe any of these are abscesses.

    Perhaps it's time for a second opinion from a different herp vet. Where do you live? Perhaps someone here could direct you to a good place.

    I would also ask what would cause them.

    I live in Wisconsin.

    The vet said that they're caused by some kind of bacterial thing? I don't remember exactly. But he said they couldn't be drained at all.
