White stuff coming out of guinea pig

[Chuckthepig]

Last week she was diagnosed with G.I. stasis and bladder stones. Right now she is puffing up, trying to push something out, and I can’t tell if it is the stone, but there is white stuff coming out of her and it’s kind of hard and spiky. Please let me know if this is the stone she’s pushing out. Also, sorry for the bad picture.

Hi and welcome

I am ever so sorry. What an anxious time for you.

It looks like some dried calcium sludgy stuff to me that she has sat in and that has dried onto her coat?

However, I can only guess.

I’m so sorry your piggy is poorly. Is she on pain killers? If she’s sat puffed up it’s a sign of pain. If you’re worried about her I’d take her back to the vets. Good luck.

Yes, she is on meloxicam.

Yes, it's great that you have this picture. The best thing to do is take a sample of the white substance and keep it in your fridge in a clean sandwich bag or small jar. Ask to see your vet and let him see it. Wishing you good luck with this, it looks serious. Only a vet would be able to ID it thoroughly.
