Question
My hamster is walking lopsided he fell off my bed no blood or broken legs im 11 and I'm so scared can you help??

Answer
Dear Shailyn,
thank you for your question.
It's possible that your hamster has internal injuries or broken bones that are not obvious, like his hip. alls can also cause a concussion, even if the fall wasn't from a very great height.
Please ask your parents to take the hamster to a vet to find out what exactly is wrong. You can find good vets for rodents on these websites:

I'm sorry that I cannot be of more hep to you and I hope your hamster will be okay
