So my two guinea pigs literally just got treated for upper respiratory infections and were on antibiotics which made one stop eating but one of their eyes never stopped being crusty it’s nt to crusty but sometimes they are and I wipe it off and he had a tiny wet nostril (didn’t look to bad) but I haven’t seen anything since but both of their eyes are always watery and I’m honestly hoping they don’t have a uri because it was terrible the last time but I don’t know for sure. I know you guys can’t really tell without pictures and stuff but can someone just give me an opinion? Definitely all for going to the vet just want some advice : )

Can't really adviseas they will need to see a vet really as you cant diagnose over the internet

Is there any other signs of a URI?
 
@sport_billy No not really but my boyfriends sisters guinea pig had the same thing and I made him take her to the vet today because she’s one of our guinea pigs “girlfriend” cause I was concerned and she had a minor upper respiratory infection yet the doctor was acting like it was no big deal for some reason but my other guinea pig was like I don’t know gagging I guess? Is that normal? He like makes a sound and his body like croaks I think
