Leg swelling
My brother hit his leg mid thigh against a table...it caused some pain and caused him to limp. He went to the hospital and a sample was extracted from the leg for testing...the leg is now swollen and bleeding with a lot of pain that wasn't there before.Doctors are recommending amputation without any explanation. Can you help?
