Hi guys new here so excuse any mistakes.

I have a 5 month old harlequin cross bun named Spencer who sneezes quite frequently. The sneezing is accompanied by a snotty nose but no eye discharge and he is still himself in terms of how he acts. He lives with another rabbit who has no symptoms at all. We've taken him to the vet and given him antibiotics but none of them have worked. We've tried finding the most dust free bedding and hay possible in case of allergy. Now however he is losing hair around his eyes and on top of his head looks like patches of fur that are longer than the rest of his head/body?
We're taking him to the vet again as soon as but is there anyone who may know or have an idea of what's going on?
Thank you
 
Is the discharge clear or milky? Anything other than clear is a sign of infection. If it is clear, and now eyes are runny, it could be a dental issue. You'll need a rabbit savvy vet for this. (Most generic vets say they treat rabbits but aren't truly experienced.)
