What is on my piggy’s lip?

[danuutka]

I just noticed this on my piggy. I’ve immediately applied Leucillin Antiseptic on it, and it sounded as though it hurt because as soon as I wiped it, he let out a squeal. You can see it clearly between his lips, and on the corners of his mouth.

Any ideas/suggestions?

It looks like it could be chelitis which is a bacterial infection to the lip, but it could also be fungal. Please take your piggy to see a vet for formal diagnosis and the correct treatment. And in the meantime avoid feeding fruits and tomatoes that are acidic.

I agree. Your piggy needs to see a vet.
Please do not out anything on it yourself, as you wouldn’t want to cause any further problems.
