My dog has a large, painful bump on his back that appeared about a week ago. He doesn't lick or rub it, and his name is ***** *****, who will be 14 in January. What could this bump be, and what should I do for him?

Found a large baseball-sized lump on my chocolate lab, Tootsie, between her ear and jaw on her neck line. It appeared suddenly within the last 2-3 days and is very firm.

My 7-year-old Great Pyrenees, Duke, has a history of ear infections. He has been aggressive at the vet's office and requires sedation for treatment. He is also resistant to anyone touching his ears since his last infection. What can be done to treat his current ear infection without causing distress to Duke?
