Cheilitis? Opinions please...

[Shellza]

I've just noticed a sore on Lexi's mouth. I was just wondering if any of you think it could be cheilitis or whether it's just a mouth sore and what I can do about it. I know she had some tomato the other day so it could just be that that has made it sore. I have some pics to show you though so please let me know what you think.

Ooh sorry Shellza, I really doon;t know but it looks a bit sore. I'd pop down to the vet if I were you and get it looked at.

It looks like it may be, Nigel gets it when his heart problems flare up which leaves him run down and it does look similar. Best to get confirmation from a vet though.

Thanks guys. I shall book her in tomorrow. I just wanted to know if you lot thought it was worth it so I wouldn't waste vets time.

The vets is booked for 5.40pm tomorrow so I will let you know how we get on. Looking up on it, it does seem like it could be cheilitis from a lack of Vit C.
Unfortunately, I ran out of food and must have ordered it from the wrong website as it still hasn't been dispatched grrrr so I've been trying to pump them full of Vit C rich veggies to no avail . Poor girly.
