Hi, welcome to the forum.
I'm sorry your budgie is struggling, how long has he had a bad leg?
Some other details would be helpful, how old is he, for instance? Do you you notice him injure himself? What sort of perches does he use, natural wood is best, sandpaper finish is a no-no.
Are you able to arrange his cage so that he doesn't need to climb to reach his food, water and favourite toys, etc.

Hopefully someone more experienced will be along with some good advice and suggestions.

I would recommend a visit to a vet with experience of treating birds, if possible.

A picture showing both his feet and a close up of the sore foot might be helpful. Is the sore foot swollen or a different color compared to the other one? Other members have had budgies with foot problems and they may be able to help you.

Photos of the foot, top and bottom. A video of the bird getting around, using or not using the foot may also be helpful.
