He’s still a little sneezy, but with an injury to his nose and having just cleared his airway, I know that’s common. I will definitely keep you all updated.
As long as his nostrils are clear leave the scab above his nose to allow it to heal.
Keeping it clean with no signs of infection it shouldn't be a concern.
