[RC] neck nodules? - L gin

Don't you hate it when you 'find' something , and think "that's odd, what is that, "? then you start feeling all the other horses in the same spot and go "no body else has this , the old one , the same age one and the young ore---
Of course my vet, stopped doing horses last July cause he said couldn't make enough $ at it . (and another child on the way).He can make a lot more in the dog/cat business, and he already has a clinic his vet wife runs. He did this before, but then went back in for 2 years....he likes horses. so I ma without a vet that knows us.
Anyhow, there are 2 sort of oblong lumps on my geldings trachea, about halfway down from his throatlatch towards his chest, maybe 1"-1 1/4 by 3/4-1" They feel like thay are connected to the trachea or muscles in the area, , fairly solid, but not 'hard". More to one side , then center of his throat He is 12, hasn't had anything done there , except a blood sample once or twice. Never been tubed that I know of or anything else there. No injuries that I know of. Has basic shots, full turnout, some grass in coming in, but sparse. Mostly hay diet. A bit of beet pulp and Seminole balnacer , a few oats when necessary.
