I'd get him to the vet the next couple of days. Myco is common and all rats carry it, but URIs can kill, and a myco flare up can cause a URI.

Wolves, give her a few days. It might be the new home sneezes, but if it gets worse, or doesn't get better, she needs medicine.

My mom took him to the vet about an hour ago, but I'm about to go to school, so Idk how he's doing.

Guys, I need some help.
Sometimes when my rat wants to go somewhere, I pick her up gently and carry her over to a different place.
The point is when that happens she kinda vibrates and shakes, I need help, ASAP!!

I looked up "Why do rats shake" and it's nothing to worry about.
If my reserch is right, she is in heat. Rats go into heat every 4-5 days. When this happens they shake or vibrate and arch their backs. Nothing is wrong with her c;

Okay, thanks. She sounds more like a guinea pig, actually, and it looks like she barely got hurt one side of her nose. Maybe its just that, nothing more. Other than that, her coat is smooth, eyes bright,and everything else appears normal.

If she sounds like a guinea pig and it isn't gone in two or three days, or gets worse, vet. That sound is fairly commonly a URI.

URI? I have no idea what that is,even after having rats for seven years.

I just got Rupert from the vet and he has pneumonia. He's back at home, still wheezing and breathing loudly, but the vet gave us some antibiotics as treatment c:
So I guess we can only wait it out and see if he gets better^^
