sore paws

Please can you help me?

I got a bunny in on Thursday with sore back legs.

Now he's had a rough time so didn’t want the stress of the vets for a few days.

Ive put him on a deep bed with newspaper over the top.
One of his rear paws was red and inflammed (not his hock) but that has resided now.
The other has a scab on it. Ive been checking daily on it and it doesn’t seem to be getting smaller and a little bit of the scab had peeled off and it was bleeding yesterday.

Are there any recommendations?
I saw some antiseptic powder but not sure how good that will be.
He doesn’t like his feet touched either.

I should add he's hopping round the agrden fine with no lameless but it cant be nice for him.

Im not sure if to keep and eye as his previous home he couldnt move around much and his bedding was thin.
How he's ouit lots with thick bedding so should improve like the other foot has

I would take him to be checked, just in case his sore hocks are a symptom of another problem i.e pain from somewhere causing him to sit incorrectly.
You could put some sudocrem on :)
