Ok. My friend is looking at this horse to buy. As a trail horse. He's 15 and he has several VERY LARGE lumps on his head. The people who own him have had him for about 5 years, he had the lumps when they bought him. They say it's never bothered him, but they have gotten bigger. They are hard to the touch. Touching them doesn't bother him. Other than the lumps, he seems like a normal horse. My friend has ridden him once a week for the past couple of months, nothing else about him seems wrong. She is going to have a vet look at him, but I was just wondering if anyone knew what these lumps are? I'll try to upload some pictures. Thanks in advance!

It is melanoma. Aka, cancer that runs in grey horses.
