Hello, i'm new in this forum.
Please noted that english is not my first language so im sorry if there's any confusion in the future beforehand. I lived in Indonesia, a country placed in Asia to be precise. Indonesia is a developing country so our health care and doctors specialized in small mammals is rare. So, my rabbit named Milo. She's currently about 6 and 4/5 months old. She had been exposed to pasteurella over a year ago, the signs she had were white mucus in her nose, constant watery eyes and occassional sneezing/coughing. She also had abscess twice in her paw. Because there were no facility to ensure the test were accurate to determined the exact bactery she had, my doctor just prescribed antibiotics and see if the symptom get better. Eventually she got better from all the symptomps i've mentioned before, but the watery eye keeps on going until now. Around December last year, i noticed that her left eye got bigger than usual. I brought her to a different doctor that were said was "ophtalmic doctor", notice that rabbit in my country are rare animals to keep as a pet so this doctor had rare cases about rabbit eyes to begin with. She said that this "bigger eye" are no longer visual by testing her eyes to certain light, and she tested another eye. The problem is she can't be sure to determined what my rabbit had. She said either it was glaucoma or cataracts. So this problem is once again unsolved because the lack of expertise in the field. In the beginning, it's just one of her eye that bigger, but now it's both. But one eye is still visual, and the other got bigger than they were in December.
Remember that i said, she had URI in the past. But now i caught her occassionally cough with no mucus or wet nose like before. It's not a fit, but a single cough but happened often. So i got her to the same doctor when i treated her pasteurella before, because i was worried that it might be thymoma. Because now both of her eyes are bulging, but no third eyelid prolapse. Noticed that one of her eye bulging more than the other and it's constant, not just when she's looking down or something. So the doctor did xray of her abdomen and said that her xray looked normal, nothing tumourish like thymoma in her lungs. I included some pics for you guys to analyze. So that doctor just prescribed me multivitamin, immune supplement, and something she called "cough medicine" to help her airways if there was a phlegm or anything. She told me to nebulize her once a day with bisolvon, saline solution and gentamicin, but she won't gave me her pasteurella antibiotics because she need to see the situation for about a week later with this medication she gave me. Now when i gave her medicine, i noticed something strange in her teeth. It looked like the photos i attached. What could it be? Yesterday i've gone to the vet, but my home is very far away from the vet i usually go to. I suppose that i need to reduce the stress from travelling to that vet again. Is something in her teeth is concerning and need immidiate attention to get her to the vet? What could this possibly be? This looked like her gum are overgrowth to her incisor. I've read online that this might be abscess in her root. Could this be the cause to her cough because her airways were blocked by this infection? Once again, even exotics vet in here are not reliable. So your answer are the most reliable thing to me to act on my own.
