Tiny bump on top of Indian Runner duck foot

[Breannemoreno]

Hi all!
I noticed today that my black Indian Runner duck, Poe, is tucking her leg up when she stands. I noticed slight limping and inspected her feet. I noticed a tiny bump on the top of her foot. We have bees, so I suppose it could be a bee sting? I see no visible injuries or bumble foot on her, just the small bump. Across the foot however is a tiny healed hole. I researched this hole before (it is months old) and I didn't think it was anything to be concerned about. Im just not sure what this new bump is. The limping just started today so I might be jumping the gun a bit. This is my first year with Indian Runners. She is acting fine otherwise. Thank you!
P.s please ignore my muddy hands. Was gardening. Last pic was baby poe for cuteness

She’s so adorable. It could be a sting or bite, It doesn’t look too bad. If you have vetericin you could spray it with that, and just watch how she does the next couple days. Most of the time when ducks are limping a little bit it’s temporary.

Are you supplementing with any type of niacin? sometimes a limp means a niacin deficiency .

Hey! Thank you! She seems to be doing okay today. Little bump is still there, but no limping. I am new to this and freak out over anything haha

They have niacin in their food, but I'll double check and check the amount as well!

Sometimes we may have one that just needs more than what they are getting in their feed.
