Hey!
Well... bit of an update. I took my bunny to vets and went with the op. However, the results are a bit undecided.
It's not an abscess as initially told. It's not his teeth. As they're fine too. It's not a cyst as no fluid came out when it was lanced as would be expected.
They did an xray and it's not anything to do with the bone formation.
So... basically, they have no idea! In order to investigate it would require cutting through the muscle of the jaw which has dodgy consequences and may mean he'll not be able to eat etc as it often doesn't reconnect properly.
Has anyone else had this with one of their bunny's? It's all a bit peculiar and I feel they're just clutching at straws. They said it might be a swollen muscle but that doesn't seem quite right either...
