Injured tegu

I have a b&w tegu about 4-5 months old. Had him out for his free roam time and turned my back for a second to thaw some pinkies and he pulled a laptop charger on himself. Now he’s limping on his front right foot. Being Sunday nothing is open. I don’t think it is broken. There is no deformation but it does appear to be bruised. Is there anything I can do to help? Is there anyway to know if is serious? I guess I’m asking if he will be ok for a day or 2 until I can get him into see the vet? Thanks

Nothing to do but keep him in his enclosure until you can have him checked out.

No broken bones. Just a bruise. They gave him some reptile aspirin and said he’s a little over weight but otherwise in great health.
