Tails From The Clinic: It Started With a Sneeze! A Bunny Medical Mystery
🤧 That’s SNOT What We Expected! 🐰This sweet bunny came in with a weepy left eye and sudden sneezing fits. We couldn’t see anything up the nose, so we started with a tear duct flush and a short course of anti-inflammatories, but when things didn’t improve, we knew it was time to dig a little deeper.
A head CT revealed the unexpected: a grass seed lodged high up in the nasal cavity! Too far up to see by eye. Using a tiny scope, Dr. Nicole carefully removed the intact seed, assisted by nurse Emilie. 🌱👏
Foreign bodies like this can lead to ongoing discomfort, infection, and more serious issues if not diagnosed and treated promptly. Thankfully, with quick, thorough investigation and teamwork, this bun is now on the road to recovery. ❤️
