Hi, I think my guinea pig has conjunctivitis. I have read on internet that I should clean his eye with warm water and cotton. I have sodium sulamyd eye drops for conjunctivitis with me. Should I use them also to cure him or just cleaning the eye regularly will be fine ?
 
You need to have the issue confirmed with a vet who will more than likely prescribe appropriate eye drops.

Eye issues can be an indication of a URI so it's vital you see a vet ASAP!
 
Cool boiled water is fine. But eye drops need to be presribed or confirmed by the vet, better to get your pig examined rather than home medicate.

Hope he feels better soon.
