Right ive done my research im not a pro but its a very common problem very rare for a pacman to breach its leg.. it's an infection due to lack of calcium is there large mass around that leg i would take him to the vet to make him poop you want to put him in a bowl or anything that holds water 1.add shallow Luke warm water 2. Add one drop of honey and mix let camo soak for 15-20 mins hope i could help i dont want u to lose him !! good luck

Took him out of his 45 soak he is moving around and using his right leg. Seems to be doing good now that he has had the soak in warm water. The limb is even out from under him.
Still want to know a good way to get him to poop he still hasn't gone. Thanks
