Hello,
Sorry your dragon is limping on his leg!
Is there something high in his tank he could have fallen off of to hurt himself?
I am glad that there isn't any swelling though & he lets you touch it.
Can you run over your tank setup with us, such as the type & brand of UVB lighting, the temperatures & the supplementation given to him?
If you have any pictures of him & your setup that would be helpful, too. Did he eat anything today?

thank you for getting back to me i have a piece of drift wood and a rock in is tank it is likely that he could have fallen off and got hurt he is an active one as for lighting i use a T8 reptisun 10.0 UVB bulb
i keep the tank about 105 and i give him calcium powder that i dust on crickets that also has vitamin D3 and yes he ate as much as he normally would (crickets,veggies,ect) and on a side note i went and took out everything that he wants climb up on to out just incase but i left his rock so he can still bask
