Hi-
I want to second what Nic has said.
I recently had a large adult hog at the vets who needed an amputation. The nurse said he was making a great recovery except not eating much and he was smelly.
Stef advised re internal parasites and stress and also the meds to use. The nurse took this on board and he started eating within a couple of days. He is now hibernating in our hedgehog house in the garden.
Our vet does a great job but hedgeehog care can be very specific and being couped up causes great stress for them
Let me know if you want me to look up the meds used.
Good luck.
