Pain control for compressed spine discs, & long-term prognosis
P.S. Veterinary chiropractic may also help, although it's still pretty rare to find a doctor willing/able to work on the fragile skeleton of a rabbit or bird. Might be worth the search!

Taking a pet to a vet school instead of a local vet
Wow, that's a shocker. Folks in the PHL and mid-NJ region may also opt to try boarded rabbit specialist vets at the North Star VETS in Robbinsville, NJ, and Maple Shade (also NJ). Costly, all services
