I got my bunnies spayed 2 days ago. One is healing great but the other has formed a lump at the incision site. It's fairly large but soft and not hot. I'm hoping it's not an abscess but I have also read that they have reactions to the disolvable stitches that are used. Has anyone had an experience like this and can give me some advice?
 
Do you have a recheck with the vet who did the spay? Both are possible. Abscesses are easier to treat the earlier you catch them, so in this case it might be best to have a vet just do a look/feel. Most animals do not have reactions to sutures, but they are also not super uncommon either. Keep us updated!
 
Update: took her to the vet today and she broke an internal suture causing a hernia. No infection as of now thank goodness. Got everything fixed and hopefully she will begin to recover.
