So my dog has had this odd bulge around the area by his ear, and I can confirm that it isn't a tick, if someone knows what it is could you please spare me some info, sorry if this isn't the right board to be posting this on, if you at least have anything, just please let me know, and if it's the wrong one, please point me in the direction to the right one
Looks like some kind of growth.
Vet for sure.

Looks like a skin sarcoma.
Go to the vet, poorfag.
Doesnt look like a tick nor any kind of parasite
from this one picture. regardless of said issue, take it to vet.
Do it now before it gets larger.
See these on a lot of dogs I groom, especially older dogs.
Also had something similar on one of my dogs. Vet removed it and said it was most likely a papiloma.
If you don't want to vet immediately: keep an eye on it, make sure it isn't growing. If it isn't growing I wouldn't worry much about it. If the dog is itching at it or it grows, definitely vet.

Ignore vetfags.
Just watch it, if it grows a whole bunch it's probably an issue. If it stays the same, let it be.
Get a picture like the one you have, and put a dime next to it if you can. Keep your sense of scale intact when you look again.
