My dog, Teddy, has a wound that seems to be a bug bite but isn't improving. It continues to bleed and looks like ringworm. The wound has been ongoing for about a week, with scabs falling off or bleeding around them. Teddy is 10 years old and shows no changes in eating, drinking, or defecating. What could this be, and what treatment options are available?

My 7-month-old goldendoodle puppy, Hawkeye, has a lump on his face under his ear, next to his eye. The lump is swollen to the size of a golf ball, red, and fluctuates in size. It first appeared 3 days ago and became larger after boarding. This morning, it felt softer and smaller, but it swelled again after lunch. What could this lump be, and what should I do about it?
