You've done really well recently because I remember how much you were struggling a while back. That shows you can do it and I'm glad you found your strength to dig yourself back out of the hole you felt you were in.

I'm would suggest you try to distract yourself any way that you can whether it's with mundane chores to keep you busy or anything else. Also try to do some breathing exercises to reduce your adrenaline levels, maybe walk it off too as exercise helps the body to metabolise excess adrenaline into other chemicals the body needs.

A lump or swelling can be many things and the most common are the most easily treated. It's most likely some form of infection or be may even have bitten himself or perhaps even a burn from food/drink. There are tons of basic possibilities that may or may not need a quick treatment.

Think about all the illnesses you've had growing up, all the bumps & bangs. He will go through them just like we all do. So, isn't it most likely something simple than something scary?

thanks so much for the reply..im not sure if its a change in weather but the anxiety has really kicked in these past few weeks, and now my husbands job of 2 years is ending so he is asking 'me' to find a job quick ... (you can imagine how this is now not helping with anxiety) i cant sleep..im really short of cash so i sold some bits on ebay and then i had someone complain wanting their money back..i agree and am polite but it really makes the anxiety kick in..feel like i really need a simple life with no responsibility..wish i could just lay in a field all day
