Answer
Hi Rani,

I don't know because I don't know what you have.  We are not vets here.  I would strongly suggest calling a vet who works with rabbits and asking them this question.

If you need to find a rabbit vet near you, start here:

www.rabbit.org/vets/vets.html

This will help you find a good rabbit vet in the US, and they also have international links you can access off this page.
