Hi

While checking my piggies ears, I noticed some white stuff in Tinkerbell's ears. I can't see if its mites or discharge ? It looks sort of granular ?

Should I be concerned?

Sorry its a bit vague ?
 
Take your guinea pig to the vets as soon as you can. It could be an ear infection or an abcess or mites. Hopefully it won't be an abcess. Best of luck.
 
A vet trip is needed to find out what is causing it. Ear mites, infection or fungal can cause manky looking ears - a good look inside and the appropriate treatment should hopefully clear it up quickly.
