hi, are there any spare vibes for my lovely boy Freddie please?last week i notice he had a slightly reddened area of skin under his chin, so booked him in to be seen, had to bring his appointment forward as his chin swelled up overnight, he was diagnosed with a dental tooth root problem and abscess i am GUTTED and so upset, he was prescribed a week of ABS, (baytril) plus meloxidyl(sp??) twice a day to try and reduce the infection before doing anything invasive, he is booked in for an x ray on Thurday, plus further treatment, will know more on the day what else they can do, but they said it desn't look too positive,
does anyone have any first hand experience of this problem please, as it is my first time dealing with it(have sadly lost guinea pigs with dental problems before though), have thankfully never encountered it before with the rabbits , have done some research online but any advice or help would be gratefully received and much appreciated by anyone who knows more, thank you, am dreading Thursday, but at the moment just trying to really enjoy Freddie, thankfully, he seems very happy in himself, he is eating ok, drinking, running around the garden as normal, and doesn't seem to be fazed or in pain, his cheek is fairly swolen but the redness on his skin has faded to pink now, he is taking his meds wonderfully well in a syringe, and is being very brave, and stoical, he is SUCH a a sweetheart and has the loveliest nature and is one of the cutest and friendliest bunnies ever, i am really upset and wil be distraught if we lose him... i am really worried about the GA too in the meantime, we are letting him have a good week, enjoy the lovely weather and lots and lots of extra treats, cuddles, brushing him and fussing him,
