I picked up Edgar and I felt two lumps under his chin, they are right behind his jaw....I made an appt for him to be looked at but I have no idea what this could be.

He was attacked my pika, but not on his neck that i am aware of....his mouth was a bit swollen but but nothing more?

Teeth? seriously how do you check them? I tried to look and he is pretty easy going as far as holding him but he would tighten his lips up lol

I have an appt for him Thursday morning after I drop the boys off for their neuters but I am kinda puzzle by this.. He is young maybe going on 3 months now.....
 
it is like two dead center, one in front of the other, I think i see a bit of a scar from a scratch scar but he is kinda hard to flip over to look at it, they are right behind it but they feel deeper than most abscesses i have dealt with
 
I had a dental abscess myself, they can definitely be deep. It would be my guess, but just that, a guess. I'd try compresses until you can get to the vet.
