I have a male with the same problem and you need to just let them go away on their own. Any good vet will reccomend NOT trying to drain them because they are so close to a important joint and IF the joint gets infected you have bigger problems. Try your best to keep them on something soft but believe me when I say I know how hard that is to do. I took my male the the USRC Nationals with one and the judge mentioned it in his critique. My vet suggested trying to make a doughnut out of soft foam and taping it onto his elbow because there was no way he would lay on anything soft. It eventually went away but they sure are ugly while they last.
Some may come on right behind me and say draining is fine but my vet REFUSED to drain one and he knew we were going to a show
