    Please keep in mind that posts on this forum are from members of the public sharing personal opinions. It is not a replacement for qualified medical advice from a veterinarian. Many illnesses share similar symptoms but require different treatments. A medical exam is necessary for an accurate diagnosis, without which appropriate treatment cannot be given.

    You should always consult your vet before following any suggestions for medication or treatment you have read about. The wrong treatment could make your rabbit worse or mean your vet is unable to give the correct treatment because of drug interactions. Even non prescription drugs can do harm if given inappropriately.

    Urgent Medical Advice: If you need, or think you might need, urgent medical advice you should contact a vet. If it is out of working hours phone your vet's normal number and there should be an answer phone message with instructions on what to do.

Sore penis

Young Bun
I have been bonding my two bunnies and my male did try to hump my females face. I separated them straight away but his willy looks sore and red. And now it looks like, the only way I can describe it, a white head on it. Do ya think he will he be okay or should I take him to the vets?
Thanks
 
Definitely the vets. It might be he overused it with his humping, or he might have a wound.

He is likely to need pain relief (in the form of Metacam for the next few days) and maybe antibiotics too.

Hopefully it's not a bite requiring surgery.

You will need to pause your bonding for a while. (which I'm sure you had already figured out :) )
