Buck with some issues??

[quadrafire]

Lump on the Left cheek and the sternum? He looked perfectly healthy, but noticed these lumps when I processed the pics??
Thoughts??

I did notice the chest lump as he "bounded" off. didn't seem to slow him down any

Not sure about the lump on his chest but it looks like he has a fat chew in his cheek. Maybe he is headed to the ballpark. 

[quadrafire]

he does have a chew in..... you can see the stem in his mouth if you look close

Do tics ever get infected on them?

I've seen a handful of deer over the years on the west side with purplish blue tumors, don't remember what the research turned up for a name, but I did find it somewhere.  Looked different than what this buck's got though.

Looks like hes got a good start on a thick rack.
