Can anyone help me?

[Snejankaa]

I want to ask if someone have any idea what this is causing (I am attaching a photo), because according to the doctors the cause is shavings which is contaminated and when the guinea pig scratches herself, the skin become sore. But I notice that it happens to her for the second time after antibiotic treatment.

Hi, I would suggest sending the photo to your vet for a proper diagnosis.. You could try and change the bedding to see if that helps?

Has she been checked for mites?

The vet didn't chek her for mites. What is this test for mites, because my vet didn't tell me anythibg about this.

It could be either mites or ringworm, some of my previous piggies had both. I hope he/she gets better!

A decent vet should be able to see if your piggie has mites or a fungal skin condition with a skin scape. Are their any other vets near you that are a little more piggie savy x

It's just so hard to tell from a photo... I hope you get to the bottom of it
