Help: rabbit hurt in a fight

[wolfrabbit]

two of my male rabbits started fighting each other and one mounted the other over his head. the one on bottom bit the rabbit on top. it looks like he bit one of his testes. one of them looks normal and the other one is smaller and has a cut with some blood. the bleeding has stopped and the rabbit is walking like normal. what should i do?

go to the vet....

I would suggest flushing the injury with saline and apply some basic Neosporin (without pain relief) to the injury. Monitor for signs of infection. Most likely this basic treatment will resolve the issue.

keep a close eye on it if you do treat it yourself.

I am not sure why the wounded one would look smaller than the normal one though, unless he's holding it closer to his body. You'd expect some swelling on the wounded one, no?
