        I just noticed the scab or sore, & I cannot tell if it is a scab or if it’s an infected cut, or what’s going on. She doesn’t seem to be in pain, & she’s eating & playing fine, but then again with bunnies, you can never tell what’s really going on. I’m concerned, & I can’t really afford a trip to the vet right now, since vet costs are so expensive in my town. I need help figuring out of it’s just a cut that she got from chewing on something or playing with my other bunny, or if there’s something worse going on.

          It’s difficult to say anything about this without a picture. It could be just a scab, but there is a rabbit disease called treponematosis that causes sores on lips, around the eyes and/or the genitals. Can you see any other scabs on her?
