Noticed this little lump on my cavy this morning when playing with him, It's surrounded by hair loss and brown specs. I'm trying not to be a concerned parent but it's hard cause I don't know much about guinea pig skin conditions. Any help in guiding me towards proper treatment or anything is greatly appreciated. There are a couple pictures attached. The pig is almost 5 months old, healthy otherwise, male, well fed, happy, and handsome as can be.

if this is a nipple i'm gunna look stupid but ultimately relieved oops
 
THEY'RE TOTALLY NIPPLES I FREAKED OUT FOR NOTHING I love this baby too much
 
Lol, I did the same thing when I discovered Icarus' nipples. Complete freak out for a couple of minutes, then "oh, boy pigs have nipples too..." And Icarus is giving me the stink eye, "stop poking my tummy!"
 
Definitely just nipples!
 
One of mine has a third nipple. I was rather freaked out when I discovered that.
