Please Note - Medical Advice
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.
Thanks for the advice, not quite sure how you post pics at the moment but I will definitely pop a picture on if I can In maybe a week or so. Acorn is looking a bit scary at the moment she lost quite a bit of fur but it seems to be growing back nicely now so when she looks a bit prettier, I can't wait to show her off so any help on posting pics would be great too thanks again xx

Thanks again Tamsin for the cardboard box idea, made her a little house with a front door & a back door & she has literally gone crazy. Before I had even put it on the ground her head was in it sniffing,then she was in and out of it circling it sniffing it like crazy, on her hind legs sniffing the top, lifting it up and nudging it around lifting up with her mouth. One extremely happy bunny, might go mad myself and make her a massive fortress
