          I think you should see a vet about the anal protrusion/swollenness. It could perhaps be a bit of the anal tissue sticking out.

          It looks like the scent glands need cleaning, here’s a good video with Mary S Cotter on how to do that: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_x9dbSUdomg

          As for dried dirt, you can do a dry bath. Here are some very detailed instructions from the site Disabled Rabbits about how to clean a disabled rabbit. You’ll need cornstarch and a comb: http://www.disabledrabbits.com/baths–cleaning.html Disabled rabbits is a very useful resource.
