run your hand down her leg and try to manipulate it alittle. see if she reacts when you get to a certain spot. if so then i'd say she eiher has a sprain ligament or a broken bone. I'd not let her do much for the rest of the day. keep her with you and relax so she's not using it. see if its a little better by tomorrow.
