[QUOTE="76 Bar, post: 1565517, member: 18664"] Likely an abscess as TCR noted. Have had a few calves develop them at same age and locale as yours for a variety of reasons. Not life threatening. If its hard without a detectable soft spot the infection has encapsulated e.g. generally too late to resolve it. If there's an obvious soft spot you can lance, flush & debride it for a few days with appropriate disinfectants. Systemic antibiotics are typically counterproductive. [/QUOTE]
