Poor little fella has a wart on his nose (though it causes no harm), he gets blocked tear ducts in both eyes (again causes no harm and I clean away the crust daily), he sometimes gets a crackly chest (again hes fine, ive had him checked over), he also gets waxy ears and now he is squeaking a tad when he poos. His poos are fine and hes eating fine but I'm seeing a vet visit tomorrow incase its stones or something....

Poor dear
 
Can be just the beginnings of UTI! Sending my vibes to your poor boy!
My lots-of-minor problems girl is Nerys, while her sister Nia is whistle free...
 
Poor little Sky, hope vets goes well. Healing vibes to him x x
 
Were back, he may have cystitis. Have been given meds and will see how he goes over the next few days.

Poor boy!

Make sure that you get hold of some unsweetend cranberry juice, too; it also provides extra vitamin C. You can syringe it either pure or mixed with water. Not all piggies like it.

Lots of fluids in the first 2-3 days helps flush the bacteria out of the bladder. Mild diuretics like dandelions (fresh or dried) can also help with that.

Wishing your poorly boy all the best! If symptoms persist, have an x-ray of the bladder done.
 
Poor little boy! Hope he gets well soon. Sound's just like our Snowball, with the waxy ears and colds/crackley chest, mites etc. Such a shame:(
