They are usually caused by some kind of trama to the area or nearby area. It also could be an insect bite and this will go away on its own too. Another possibility is 'pigeon fever'. This is a bacterial infection spread from horse to horse by flies. It causes abcesses often on the neck, chest or stomach. This may need the vet and the horse may have to be on antibiotics. Keep an eye on it and if it gets worse or does not go away call your vet.
