Hey my Guinea has fallen from a height of 1 ft while he was running. He has got a cut on the upper lips and one upper incisor is broken and bleeding. Please suggest me what to do? Am worried! Is he z gonna be all right?
 
My previous pig recovered from the same thing, but I would say he needs to be seen by a vet. If there's bleeding, the vet will probably want to put him on antibiotics and painkillers, and check that the break is "clean" so that the teeth can grow back correctly.

Guinea pigs teeth grow back quickly, but be prepared to handfeed him his veggies for a few days, until he can grab the food by himself again.
