IDC gone awry or something else???

Any help would be appreciated.  I'm currently treating it as an IDC, but I've never seen one like this before.  It's like it drained already & just deflated??  I hadn't noticed it prior to yesterday & feel horrible about it!!

Thoughts???

My Cocker Spaniel has those....

She licks them non stop and then they rupture and look like a deflated balloon for a day or so and then they are gone.

My vet has always called them IDCs....

Friday is too sickly to go under anesthesia so I make sure I wipe her mouth everyday with dental wipes to keep her mouth clean.  I found that since I started that, the cysts have practically stopped.

It is one that has just drained I believe.

I haven't dealt with an IDC, but similar issues. This looks quite normal for a drained cyst. I would do an Epsom Salt soak daily and keep an eye on it, it should start to go down soon.

Thank you both! That's what I was hoping to hear!!

I'll keep treating it as I have last night & this morning.  It's just such a different looking one....
