  is it growing out of the ear? I’m thinking it could perhaps be a papilloma wart.

  Hi, Branch.
  Like Bam said, it might be growing out of her ear? I’m definitely no professional, but I’m pretty sure it’s not a papilloma wart… I googled them and they don’t look much like that at all, especially not on rabbits.
  Try (I know it sounds weird or gross) but try very VERY gently cleaning her ear with a q-tip? If it comes off easily or rubs off them it’s probably just earwax like you said or some other gunk that’s accumulating.

  Looks like a wart to me. Sometimes they are keratinized.

  Hm. I mean, it’s most likely a wart but I don’t think it’s a papilloma. It doesn’t look anything like it, if the more experienced people are sure, then ignore me. I don’t know if it will be much of a problem but a visit to the vet will give you more solid results.

  Hey guys thankyou for answering.
  I googled for papilloma wart and im feeling kinda sad now.
  
  No, its not growing outside the ear, just the inside.
  If its true, that this is papilloma wart. is it possible to be healed?
  *Sorry for my bad english*

  I’m very sorry for making you feel sad and worried! Even if the wart is a papilloma wart, it doesn’t have to be cancerous. There is about 25% risk it can turn cancerous with time though. A vet can cut the wart away together with a part of healthy tissue surrounding it, and then it can heal.

  My horse had a papilloma on the inside of her ear for years. It never bothered her and eventually went away on it’s own.

  They can go away on their own. If they are large or bothersome, a vet can remove it. Or if it’s there for a long time… since as Bam said there is a slim chance it can become cancerous over time.
