Swollen Leg

[mattmackay22]

I recently adopted/saved a hen and one of the legs is swollen, and I was wondering if anyone might have an idea of what I can do or what the problem might be. She walks OK, but she puts the leg affected up now and again. Any help or advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Welcome To BYC

Can you have someone hold her and take some closeup/clearer photos of the leg from front, sides and back? (all the way round the leg).

To me, it looks like she may have something embedded in the leg like a band, string or ?

I'd soak the foot/leg in a warm epsom salts bath, examine that front scab on the leg, see if it loosens up a little. Take some more photos of that too, once it's soaked.
