hi
Thanks for your query
i can feel your concerns
if leg is swollen and it's colour is changing, then you need to consult a surgeon immediately.your friend may need incision in leg to decrease pressure and to remove blood.
if condition deteriotates and leg is whole blacken, then amputation is the only option.
i advise to consult a doctor and have a properly clinical examination.
wishing him good health
