She could have mastitis in one quarter which is not that unusual, especially in heifers with a small bag and agressive calf or other calves trying to suck her, if it hurts she will kick him off that teat. Not a real big deal for a healthy 2 week old calf, he will find what he needs, he will miss out on some milk but as long as you are creep feeding and/or have good grass he will grow normal. Control of flies and grass pasture are the best mastitis control. I personally would not spend money on a vet for the simple reason that most cases of mastitis in beef cattle clear up on their own and may never come back in the same cow if she doesn't injure her udder or get it from cross sucking by other calves.
