Found this on my bunny this morning, what is it?

I checked the inside of my bunny’s ear and nothing seems to be off.

It might be a ear infection-go to a vet & see.

Might be from ear mites-my bunny had the same thing.

Is the fur just rubbed off or is there a lump, sore, scaling, or lesion? It's hard to tell from the photo.

Could it be a bug bite? Has your bunny been outside? I would not take the rabbit to the vet and just put Vetericyn on it for a day or two. Vetericyn is used for any cuts, and just needs to be for rabbits. Mineral Oil is used for ear mites though I personally don't think ear mites are the problem. DO NOT put the Vetericyn in their ear. You can rub it on with a q-tip.
