I’ll get straight to the point, my guinea pig (about 4-5 years old and male) started having skin issues about a month and a half ago. It was just bald patches and a few wounds where he had been biting at it. Took him to the vet and he got a steroid cream which had worked. Few weeks later it happened again but a lot worse, it was on his back, ears, legs, stomach and he was in pain. Vet gave antibiotics and painkiller which it seemed to be getting better however now one of his front legs is red and swollen and his two back legs are swollen and he can only hop instead of walk. He’s still eating, drinking less but if I bring the bottle over he drinks a lot and pooping normally. Does anyone know what this could be? Is there anything I can do to help his legs or just let him rest?
Thank you
