My rabbit has a lump where his abscess was. Is it recurring?

Question

My bunnie had surgery about 2 months ago to amputate his leg. A month ago, he had surgery to remove a abscess and was put on antibiotics. I found a lump on him today in the same place his last surgery was. Pet's info: Small Animal | Rabbit | Male | unneutered | 2 years and 1 month old | 4 lbs

If the bump is appearing where the abscess was, then I'd be concerned that it is reoccurring (a common problem with abscesses in rabbits). It's best to have your vet check him as soon as possible, because these are much easier to remove, the smaller they are. I hope that helps and Bun gets better soon.
