If this could be connected to his fall then I would get him checked by a vet
 
Is this the same piggy or the other one? If it's the same piggy, I would be taking him to the vet post haste, as it could indicate unseen injury from the jump. If it's the other piggy, it could be something more innocuous, like getting poked by some hay, but I'd certainly keep an eye on it.

This one is Ozzy, it’s literally just been that both pigs have had something happen in the last 5 minutes :( I don’t understand how this happened to him, I think Bruno might’ve kicked him in the face before he scrabbled off me. Ozzy was laying down the entire time Bruno jumped off the bed… in such a mess atm I feel like I’ve failed them both :(

This one is my other piggie, just had two things happen one to each pig in a short amount of time
 
It looks like one, will it heal on its own? I really don’t know how this happened and I feel horrible
 
Oh my goodness what are they like! No wonder you are upset. If it looks like a scratch then I’m sure he will be fine. If it looks like blood coming out of his nose I’d be a bit worried and would see a vet. ❤️

I think it’s a scratch looking at it a few times. Just in such a mess, feel bad for posting as much as I have I just feel like I’ve failed my boys :( absolutely devastated

It's not big or deep, so I'd expect it to heal on its own, but obviously you'd want to watch it for signs of infection or anything.


Any break in skin, piggy or human, can get infected ... I mean, I would say paper cuts are usually nonevents that heal on their own, but when I was young, I had a paper cut on my finger get infected and require draining and antibiotics, so there's always a possibility.

Don’t feel bad. Accidents can happen to anyone.
