==Treatment==
Although the mortality rate in affected rabbits is high, recovery is possible. High ambient temperatures have been reported to increase recovery rates and a warm environment should be provided. Antibiotics and non-steroidal anti-inflammatories are commonly used to treat the disease, however corticosteroids are contraindicated due to their immunosuppressive effects.
