The best thing is to get a check up and follow your vet’s advice plus what’s said in the article above. Good luck.

Hello! My bunny has a small lump under her cheek area i just noticed it earlier today, I’ll call the vet tomorrow morning and see what he got to say but i live in a place where it’s almost impossible to get the chance to get her an X ray.. should i go for the surgery anyway or what?

It is most likely An abscess and needs to be treated. That happened to our doe, she needed antibiotics and we had to nurse the kits with kitten milk.

Hi Kiya. The speed of growth suggests it’s an abscess like mentioned in the article. The sooner you get it seen if that’s true the better. They need to be removed the same way tumours are, so the vet would need to be comfortable giving anaesthetics to rabbits.

Hi Elijah. Although I have never seen it personally, I would suspect mastitis, as any time lumps appear in new mothers this is the most likely cause. If so it would require urgent treatment.

Hello Andrew! My female rabbit, almost 6 years has a large lump near her bladder that has grown significantly this past week. I have no idea what it is and the vets in my state do not specialize in rabbits at all and I am so scared for her.

Hi Liz. The two are probably unrelated but you should definitely get that lump checked out.

Hi Jenny. You’ll find answers to all these questions in the article.
