What should you do if your hamster is trying to chew its leg off?

When an animal is in pain, their main relief is to chew and distract themselves from their pain. It irriates them, therefore chewing their leg is a great plan in their eyes. This may be beacuse of the lenght of their teeth, a broken bone (they're bones are extremely fragile" or a more serious matter. If I were you I'd take your hamster to a veteranary clinic or an animal hospital. This could lead to much more than you think.

=============================
Take hamster to a vet quickly. Although it is probably a problem with its leg itself, it could be that the hamster is uncomfortable emotionally or physically and is chewing its leg in frustration. Perhaps it's not comfortable in its cage, or with its roommate, but make sure a vet sees it before he does chew his leg off.

Can a hamster get his leg caught in a rolling ball in a cage and will he chew it off?
It is highly unlikely a hamster would get his leg caught in any equipment designed for them. Also they would have to be stuck for awhile before resorting to chewing a leg off.
What can you do to a hamsters leg if it was eaten all the way to the bone and there is only bone holding the leg together is there anything i can do?
I'm afraid not. You need to bring it to the vet immediately or your hamster will chew off the leg entirely. The leg could get infected and it might cause a painful disease. The vet will give your hamster some antibiotics.
