Guest Downtownhoundz Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 My boy had to have anal surgery a few years back. I was told he had that surgery twice. He gets "plugged up " and can't poop without the aid of mineral oil. Every so often , in spite of the oil he gets plugged and I have to take him to the vet to get cleaned out.The last time was several weeks ago. Earlier this evening I noticed he has two strange nodules at the end of his old incision site near the rectum.He licks there a lot and sometimes leaks poop. Any idea what those nodules might be before I run him off to the vet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sambuca Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 Could they be his anal glands? They probably need to be expressed. I'd say a vet visit is in order either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batmom Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 What do they look like? Could be dissolving stitches that didn't dissolve and are working their way on out.
