Hello

You do need to take the Rabbit to a Vet as he sounds to be in need of treatment to deal with the soreness. Also, it is necessary to ascertain the cause of the problem. I would give the Vet a call now and make an appointment for this afternoon/evening. It is a long Bank Holiday weekend so you may not be able to get a non 'out-of-hours' appointment ( and therefore much more expensive) if you leave things too long.

Hi there and welcome to the Forum :wave:

Have you any idea how this might have happened? Is there any blood at all?

Short answer .. best to visit the vet, and I would be thinking it's a good idea today if possible as it's Easter coming up and you don't want any wounds to get infected :)
