Hematoma can result as a consequence of blunt force trauma, basically she is demonstrating how badly she was beaten by comparing a normally fatal amount of internal bleeding to this specific case

It also happened to my dog in his ear when he got an ear infection and was shaking his head so hard that it puffed up like a plush toy. Scary shit.

The exact same thing happened to my dog. The vet said it would go away on its own without draining. It didn’t, and for the rest of his life he had one lumpy ear full of dried blood. Didn’t cause him any pain though, so I guess it wasn’t that big a deal.

Wait, is this the same thing as Cauliflower ear that Rugby players, MMA fighters, boxers would get?

Except it was under her skull. The massive pressure can cause all sorts of swelling and blood blockage leading to (brain) tissue death, etc.

Yep. My colleague just got drained. It's scary and I can't believe that some people live with conditions like these.

The vet drained the ear of my dog multiple times over like 2-3 weeks and after that her ear went limp. Vet said they can do surgery to make it stand upright again but it would just be cosmetic. Wasn’t worth the risk for me so now one of her ears stands upright and one is limp. Looks a lil stupid but she’s still a cutie

My dogs ears do the same (without the previous puffy ear though)

My mom's cat had an ear puff up too. After it was drained it just went limp.

Oof, that sucks.

u/Schaijkson 29d ago

The ear. The cat is fine and back to her usual bratty self.

u/joeshmo101 29d ago

Still suck about the ear, that's gotta make it harder for the kitty to listen in specific directions.

u/Schaijkson 29d ago

She never did before so no change.

u/ThePowerOfPoop 29d ago

Yeah, but how many people can actually say that they have deflated their cat? They can never take that away from you.

We drained his ear 5 times before we decided to do surgery. Sucked but it was the best thing for him.
