suspicious lump

[Nikpendar]

Hi
My bird is a female eclectus,she is about 1 year old. she has a lump under his wing, which is probably a lipoma.
It seems a little suspicious.
Please get help.
Thanks

Hello. My only suggestion would be to locate an avian vet around your area, and get this lump checked out!

It could also possible be a XANTHOMA.

Please take your Eclectus to a vet. If it's a XANTHOMA, it should be quite easy to have it removed.

XANTHOMAS are believed to be cholesterol related. What are you feeding your bird?

Xanthoma - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I found it about 1 month ago

Have you since taken her to the vet?

As I said, xanthomas are fairly easy to remove, especially in that location.

What is her diet like?

There is no expert vet in my location.
her diet is Fruits, vegetables, nuts and pallet

Ii would locate the closet Avain Vet to you and request their email address and send them the pictures. You do not want to let this go without treatment.

It could be harmless or life threatening . Find a vet and send her these pictures with some info.

I wonder if it might be a feather cyst... this seems more likely.... especially on a younger bird.

Are there any local vets that treat birds? And maybe one that is willing to consult with an avian vet?

The lump changed...
Is that dangerous?
help me please

I'm sorry the lump has changed. You absolutely MUST take your bird to an AVIAN vet (bird specialist). None of us here on the forum can tell you what this is by looking at it alone. Sure, we can make some guesses, but ANY lump on a bird must be addressed as soon as possible.

It hasn't even been a month since your original post, and I hate to say it, but it will NOT go away on its own (as you can probably now see)

Please, PLEASE take your bird to the doctor. It now looks inflamed/infected to me.
