    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.

    We are very grateful to members who take time to answer other members questions, but please do be clear in your replies that you are sharing personal experience and not giving instructions on what must be done.

    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.

sticky?

Hi
my rabbit has got stickiness under his chin :lol: his teeth were checked at the vet two weeks ago, and I can't see anything in his mouth! It's really odd. Any ideas what it could be?
 
Unless your Buns teeth were checked under GA I dont think molar tooth problems can be ruled out. Viewing every angle of a Buns mouth, even with an oroscope, is near on impossible whilst Bun is awake.
Meantime clean up the stickiness with cooled boiled water, dry the area thoroughly with kitchen towel and then smear a bit of vaseline over the area that gets sticky. Vaseline will act as a barrier to protect the skin from getting sore.
