Rabbit may have injured front foot need advice!

[Azrael]

Basically i picked Touma up and was trying to carry him outside to play in his pen when he freaked out and went up and over my shoulder falling to the ground from my shoulder to tge floor he immediately began grunting i picked him up and set him in on my bed and he from there ran into his cage, at first he was highly agitated but calmed down after a while he even ate a couple treats with no problem, he was still hopping around on his back legs just fine and even got back up ontop of his plastic igloo several times and chilled, everything seemed ok until this morning when i noticed him stretching weird when i let him back out of his cage he didnt extend his otger front leg when he stretched, tgere was no grunting no indication hes in pain definately no screaming and as we speak he just vertically jumped up onto his cage. Should i take him to the vet or is it ok to just let it geal on its own. Or is there something else i can do?

If the hurt foot is dangling and he’s not putting weight on it at all you should contact a vet. But it doesn’t sound to me like he’s all that bothered? Buns can get sprains just like we can. Is he still eating, drinking and pooping like he should? If it’s a sprain a vet could give a pain killer (metacam), against pain and swelling.
