Nose stripe?

[Mr.chris]

Was checking out the nick on Lily's nose ( she's been terrorising her sisters again) when I noticed she had little skin tags down her nose.

Looks like it's probably nose stripe?


Research shows try a bit of fungal cream, if no joy then leave it if it's not bothering her?

Thanks for looking, here's a picture of her giving me evils for looking

It definitely looks like a fungal nose stripe. I don't think there's any treatment for them. She's very cute.

Hi

It could be a fungal stripe but much more rarely it could turn out to be a little growth.

Thanks for the replies,

I'll monitor it and take her to the vets if anything changes

My Esme had a fungal nose stripe for the first few years of her life. I had it checked by my vet when I first noticed it who said it was harmless and to leave it alone so I have. It used to be really bad but now you can hardly notice it

Just keep an eye on her but any concerns, see a vet x

You can see Esme’s nose stripe here

It definitely looks like fungal nose stripe. It's harmless, no need to worry. I had one piggie who had a fungal nose stripe for a couple years and then it cleared up spontaneously.
