What could this be (inc photos)

[Eira]

Ok first of all don't worry am attempting to send these over to my vet as I type so I'm not relying on HHO

Anyway , I've now decided that Sol is in love with my vet and will do anything to get to see him again

Here are the photos of her latest problem

Its just about the size of a 10p piece and has a scab at the top .. it also hard not fluidly(sp)
Its not to big or too worrying but I'm worrying

Sarcoid? Difficult to tell without seeing it, but that's my first impression

One of my mares had something very similar, vet biopsied it on the safe side but it turned out to be some kind of cyst and was harmless so w left it alone, flies used to eat it a bit though!

 

[Eira]

Thats was my first thought.. my second was 'Bollocks how many more problems can this horse possibly have

'

 

[MarinaBay]

I would also say sarcoid....

 

[Lyndz]

[devilinajar]

I would have to agree with every one else, it looks like a sarcoid!

 

[Bugly]

Well I hope you don't have a sarcoid in the same place

I know treatment differs but what treatment did you have to do with your horses ? Or was it a leave and wait job ?

Mine had one on her eyelid. It was growing inside the eyelid and compromising her sight. So she went off to Liphook to have it removed, and then reconstructive surgery of the eyelid itself.

But that was only because of where it was - she had others under her belly which we just left alone as they didn't cause her any problems

Charlie had a sarcoid in the same place when I first got him. The vet put a rubber band round it (the type you put on lambs tails) and after a couple of weeks it had shriveled up and fell off. It left him with the tiniest of scars and has never caused any problems since.
