https://www.vetsurgeon.org/f/clinical-questions/19778/sludgy-bunny Hi all, 4 year old MN lop with bladder sludge. This is secondary to urine retention due to spinal pain. He&#39;s had a few UTIs as well. His back pain is currently well controlled with acupuncture, he was on metacam and has been on penicillin injectionsen-USTelligent Community 10https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/118816?ContentTypeID=1Thu, 07 Aug 2014 11:56:25 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:653b74c0-ac79-4e2e-b9b9-55a5f0e4228bMarie Kubiak<p>I would be more concerned that the spinal pain was not being well controlled, or his mobility is limited hence the retention. Flushing it will only be a short-term solution as the underlying cause persists. I find analgesia and sc fluids for diuresis tend to work well if pain is responsible and avoid sedation and a very fiddly and frustrating bladder flush.</p> <p>Marie</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/118813?ContentTypeID=1Thu, 07 Aug 2014 11:29:59 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:2aadd2fb-80cb-452a-ba42-94a59f3fb881Martin Atkinson<p>I will bow to expert opinion but wonder just how abnormal that is given how turbid rabbits urine can be normally?</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
