    Smile Knots

    I have an 8 week old squirrel that has a knot on his head and rear right hind leg. The knots don't seem to be sensative. Not sure why they came up. Was hoping someone could give me some idea about them and what to do.

    Thanks

    Can you post any pictures? That would help the experts that are going to see this with a diagnosis. If you are new to the board and do not have cabability yet some one could post them for you.

    Hi, not sure you have full membership yet, otherwise I would ask that you post a pic...
    can you email a pic to thecrazysquirrellady@gmail.com and I will post them for the rehabbers to see.
    If you can give us some history on your little one..
    how did you come to have him? what formula is he on? solids?
    how much does he eat? what is his habitat?
    how long has he had the knots?
    and description of the knots, hard mushy, stationary, moving, hair loss?
    did he ever have cat bites?

    I can't tell... not clear enough on my screen..
    thinking if the pic was taken further back and overhead lighting or next to a window, but not a close up... we can enlarge via editing, right??
