My hamster's leg is very puffy, please help?

Please Help! My hamsters leg is completely snapped in half!?

  • The leg is still intact, but the foot is just hanging there, the bone has been completely snapped in half. I've read the other yahoo questions, but I don't see any of them ...show more

  • Answer:

    The sooner you take him to the vet the better, seeing how the bone is exposed it is only asking for infection, and then gangrene, which if left unchecked will kill him. Go!!

You NEED to take him to a vet. You shouldn't just leave it because he will be in constant pain, and I wouldn't recommend doing anything yourself because you have no idea what you're doing. He might die of shock anyway, but hamsters are tough.

VET! NOW!

Get it to a vets ASAP is the only thing I can suggest - they might amputate it (I've no idea but it'd be very difficult to fix if it's that badly broken) but it'd probably be better for your ham in the long run.

Take it to the vet! Immediately! He needs to get medical attention, not have his picture taken! If your leg was obviously broken would you want someone to say "hold on I need to ask the good people of Yahoo what they think I should do with you". Seriously!!??
