Um...and how did it start bleeding? It depends. Is it serious? If the Guinea Pig is bleeding often, maybe it'd be a good idea to take it to the vet. I hope it's not too bad! Goodluck!
Putting regular Antibacterial ointment on her cuts works. But make sure to get her away from whatever CAUSED the cuts, and if they are bleeding, apply pressure to the wounds and take her straight to a Vet Hospital.
If your guinea pig has only small cuts i.e from another guinea pig biting it then sometimes you can wash over them with some salt water, but it always best to take it to the vet.

∙ 14y agoAll Guinea Pigs bite, sometimes thinking your finger is food or sometimes they want you to stop what your doing. My Guinea Pig bites, not hard, to tell me that he is okay and that if I want I can go. On the other hand my sisters Guinea Pig bites because he REALLY dislikes being held. If you do not like your piggie biting, then when he bites tap his/her nose and say "no." After a few days they should stop. To make sure that they stick with that every time you hold them and they don't bite you before you put them up give them a treat, if they keep biting you keep taping their nose and say "no" and that should get them to stop. Take care and God bless!

∙ 8y agoIf your guinea pig has a growth or sore, you will want to watch it very carefully. If it is already very swollen and infected you will want to take it to a vet that cares for small animals like guinea pigs as soon as possible. Some growths and sores can affect your guinea pig very badly, but there is a way to save them. Don't worry.
Hope this helped!
