But then the next day his eyes become drop and lose his appetite and also after eating he always sits. he usually active. What should I do? His stool is a little bit sticky and his urine is dark brown with a lot of sediment. He has black fur but now some of them become dark brown.

Thanks for reaching out about Cecep and including photos. A veterinary visit is recommended today, as sounds as if fairly sick. Lysol not a good idea as probably toxic if ingested and rabbits very good self groomers. Could the white things be maggots or mites? Please, see a veterinarian, especially if the leg is injured.
Good luck.
