Silvadene cream for rabbits3/12/2024 ![]() ![]() If it’s being treated properly it usually is about a month to two months I think. My rabbits sore hocks have been with him since January, although we haven’t really been treating it aside from blankets and ointment whenever he’ll let me. I’m not sure where you are but the house rabbit society (USA) has a list of rabbit savvy vets and RWAF (U.K.) also has one - on their website. If you’re having some doubts about the vet, you can always look around and see if you can find a better one. I’m glad you’ve rescued him and are able to help him get what he needs. The poopy butt does seem a little off, especially as he’s not had it before but I’ve not used probiotics before so i don’t know if that’s a side effect? might be able to help. Fleece can make sore hocks worse so I wouldn’t use that just in case (unless it’s under another blanket). I would just try to keep him off abrasive flooring, make sure he’s maintaining a healthy weight (Not overweight and make sure his nails are trimmed. I can’t see his feet too well from the pictures but the vets probably didn’t wrap them because theyre not bleeding yet, so it’s not the worst stage. Im having a similar(ish) issue with my bunny. Thank you all this bunny is my life and seeing him locked up in a pen and hating every second of ointment application is breaking my heart. ![]() That’s fine if that’s the case again, just wondering if other people have been through this. I am not trying to second guess the vet the tech had a rabbit.the vet seemed really knowledgeable and also found Spurs on his teeth (makes sense cuz of a little eye weeping and he’s a rescue that never ate an once of hay until two) the Bill was 400 bucks though and i think i am worried that expensive care doesn’t necessarily mean the BEST care, but before i start asking the vet another 1000 questions i was hoping to get some feedback from anyone.Īlso, how long do sore hocks usually take you guys to clear up? Vet couldn’t really give me a time frame and said up to a month. They didn’t wrap his feet and I swear they look worse today despite three layers of blankets, towels, and fleece in en enclosed pen.Īlso, he has NEVER had trouble with poopy butt or cetotropes and now (i am assuming from the probiotic) he’s got some Poop stuck to his butt and he produces a clump of cetotropes after feeding the probiotic. Where necessary, the cream should be re-applied to any area from which it has been removed by patient activity. My rabbit has sore hocks (just moved to hardwood/tile house) I brought him to our new rabbit vet three days ago and they gave me a silver sulfadiazine topical cream for the sores, baytril for infection, and then a probiotic gel (tech said it was to keep his got Moving because the baytril can back him up) Burns: Keep the burn wound in clean condition and apply Burnsil over the affected area to a depth of 3 to 5 mm.This application is best achieved with a sterile gloved hand and/or a sterile spatula. My questions are Has anyone gone to the vet and they didn’t wrap up the sore hocks? And anyone have any experience with a pro biotic gel?īear with me please as this might be a tad long. ![]()
