These tumours vary in size, shape, and appearance, so they are not always easy to spot. Although <u>they\u2019re<\/u> a form of cancer, they don\u2019t spread to other organs in the body. However, they can grow and multiply at the site they are found at or pop up on other parts of a pony\u2019s body.\n\nSarcoids are commonly found between the front or back legs of the pony or even under the belly. They can be grey and scaly or can look like a round lump within the skin. Sarcoids often grow and can bleed or ulcerate if they get really big. \n\nSarcoids can be treated with surgery, laser removal, strong creams or even radiotherapy. Your vet will advise you on the best option for your pony. \n<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-ce765b3 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"ce765b3\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-12970aa\" data-id=\"12970aa\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bfea40c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"bfea40c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><strong>Top tip<\/strong><\/span><\/p><p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><strong>If you notice a lump or bump on your pony, you should always get your vet to check what it might be, as sarcoids are easier to treat when you catch them early.\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What are sarcoids?
