Your hamster could have got a bad sprain or a bad bruise. Feel around her leg and if you feel a broken bone, bring it to the vet. Only the vet can deal with tiny broken bones. If you don't feel anything broken, then the only answer could be a sprain or bruise. The most common reason is the wheel. If it is an open-barred wheel (it has holes in it) the hamster could have tripped on one of the holes and bruised the leg. Get a closed hamster wheel and make an appointment for the vet. Just to make sure.

My hamster has bruised or sprained his leg and I believe I know how he did it. He already has a closed wheel, but he has a wire cage. He loves to climb his cage. I suspect he must’ve got his leg caught before he jumped down causing him to hurt it bad. If it is sprained or bruised hiw do I treat it?

Maybe, but it is probably hurting her very much even if it isnt. Take her to your vet, and get her checked. If anything is seriously wrong, she will be much happier after treatment.
