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.

She has probably licked and licked at her foot taking the fur off. This can be due to boredom, or to a sign of pain. She needs her toenails trimming and I would get the Vet to check her over for any signs of a problem with her foot/toes which could need treatment.
