Hey there, My Albino Bunny recently had a problem she lied on the ground legs back breathing heavily and eyes open, she refused to move, i took her to the vet they injected 2cc of anti pain and 2cc of some sorta antibiotic.
They told me to continue injecting these 2 , 2cc per night each on.

After 2 night injecting, tonight supposedly i injected her wrong , she is irritated and angry as hell, keeps licking the area and she wont let me touch her or see the area but it looks its red or swollen. Although, she eats hay, sleeps and drink
I'd like to know your ideas about this long story, sorry for that !
 
For most of us it would be quite unusual to be told to do injections, at least for the pain meds I would guess there are good oral alternatives.
Can you tell what medicine that is, and what the diagnosis was?
Maybe some with hands on experience can chime in here.
Anyway, I don't think there's much you can do about it apart from continuing with what the vet said, as long as she's better and eating fine I would not see cause for immediate alarm. You could call or see your vet about that.

Does your rabbit move normally, hopping around, comming for a treat and so on?

No need to apologize, you'll see what "long stories" are when you keep reading here for some time, yours is quite short and to the point :)
 
Where have you been injecting her? Normally you inject near the shoulders/back of neck where they shouldn't be able to lick easily. Is she moving around OK now? Very odd you were told to give injections rather than oral medication. Did the vet show you how to do the injections? Poor bunny.

Thanks for your kind words,

She's doing totally fine, hoping around, being curious, sleeping in relaxed positions, coming for greens fruits and treats with enthusiasm and she licks my hand when i pet her as always

Left side and right side in the middle.
But no worries , i just realized the red spot on her back and it looks like a scratch or something, and i remember couple of days ago she accidentally got stuck in between sofa. Maybe this is the reason.
Btw we are in national holidays right now and there's literally no exotic animal specialist anywhere... i should wait 2 days and then I'll go to vet, and she's totally fine right now, eating jumping happy and everything.
