[QUOTE="showing71, post: 657701, member: 11621"] We've had abcesses like this. We poke them with a needle or knife (a clean one) and see if any sort of puss will come out, and then put iodine in the hole and flush the lump out. We have wood posts in our fences, and think the cows get slivers from scratching. If left untreated, the lump will decrease in size, but takes a very long time to completely disappear. Without a picture, its hard to tell for sure if what we have dealt with and your cow is similar. If you are very concerned, call your vet. [/QUOTE]
