Default Dog's Tail isnt looking good

She woke me up about 2am the other night whining and crying i couldnt figure out what it was until i picked her up to put her on my bed and touched her tail. She finally just went to sleep but the next morning her tail was swollen and limp. 2 days later its still swollen at the base and just kind of hangs there. When she gets excited it will stand up and wag but only when i get her extremely wired up. She can feel all the way down it so its not numb, just swollen and limp. It hurts her for sure bc when you try and touch it she tucks it but doesnt hurt bad enough to where she will scream when you grab it.

Any ideas? If someone can shed some advice that would keep me out of the vet's expensive company it would be much appreciated, but if it aint better by tomorrow ima bite the bullet and bring her.

The dog also might have gotten it caught or something fell on it or maybe even bit. It just might be sore for a couple of days but i would take her to the vet just to be sure.

lol I used to go to a Biology class just because of the chick I would sit next to. There was always 2 guys with her, 1 was her cousin and he was cool but the other dude was the cousins friend and he was interested in her but she would ignore him and talk to me before/during/after class. That dude hated me with a passion, he ended up dropping the class

She get hauled or stored in a smaller than normal kennel lately? Mine broke her tail in her travel kennel when she was a puppy. Was fine after a few days but since then it's bent in like the first few sections and doesn't bother her. Swims in circles, though.

That last part ain't true.
