Hello everyone,

I have a holland lop named Simba, is a little over six months old. He is super energetic, always jumping, hoping, and chewing his wooden toys (well, okay, sometimes the walls as well). He is roaming free.

Yesterday evening, his upper lip appeared swollen, and I would be tempted to say it appeared after he tried to jump on my bed and missed, causing him to fall (thankfully he seemed to have fall back on his four paws). I supposed he may have hurt his lip in his fall, maybe against the nightstand. I checked him after he fell and did not seemed hurt in anyway, he jumped successfully minutes after.

I contacted my vet via email and included pictures of his lip to have her opinion because I am really worried, even if he does not seem in pain. However, my vet is only working Monday-Tuesday, so I am not sure she will check her emails. I am even more concerned since I am going abroad for ten days this Sunday, and Simba was supposed to be watched and care for by my friend.

This morning, I looked at his lip again and it seemed less swollen, but I am not 100% sure. He is eating and drinking as usual, and doest not seem bothered. Poops are also as usual and I did not notice any changes in behavior.

I am including pictures below (picture labeled with “1” are from yesterday night, pictures labeled with “2” are from this morning). I would love to have your opinion on this matter. Thank you for your help!
