Looks very similar to a wound we saw on a deer last yr and we eventually shot In our case it was a large thorn about 2 inches long all summer would swell burst then do it all over thorn was causing it to fester all around this thorny spike Just a thought may be similar

Ask yer neighborhood poachers to atleast use broadheads!!! and centerfire rifles(not air-rifles)! I hope she makes it! She might need more protein to promote healing. Is it lawful in your area to feed/bait?

The doe is definitely sickly, compared to others she has a dull coat and no sparkle in her eyes.
I imagine she's not going to make it.
Looking more closely at the shots, it seems that there might be as many as 4 of those growths.
