Wesley's runny nose

[jordiwes]

Could it be allergies? This first appeared when when brought in a new bag of hay. Although to be fair, it doesn't look that different from the old bag.

But Wesley's nose is wet and he's sneezing a lot.

I guess it's time for the vet and a culture.

If it is an allergy, it should respond to an antihistamine.

Ditto!?

I'd say if he had yellow/ colored discharge, there is an infection lingering. Best to get anti's for it. Could be allergies too, then you're looking at filtering his space alot.

Keep us posted!

Thank goodness it does sound like allergies.

Let us know though!

Tony ALWAYS has a little dampness but no running. When Bo was having trouble with the hay dust, he just sneezed but no drainage....... I hope it's not a difficult diagnosis and it's nothing but seasonal allergies!

my rabbit has a bit of a runny nose, its more wet than actully running, hope he is ok

Muffin's nose will be wet, but not wet enough to get the fur around her nostrils wet. I think I don't have anything to worry about with her.

Another thing to remember is that runny noses can be signs of tooth root problems, due to the location of tooth roots in relation to the nose. Just another reason it's best to have it checked out.
