My guinea pig fell from the basin table while I was giving him a bath. He isn't using his back left foot, but when I touch it he doesn't cry or anything. He limps when he walks around. This happened yesterday but I feel like It's alittle more better.

If he continues to limp you may want to consider an examination with your veterinarian. It could certainly be fractured. An x-ray would likely be needed to evaluate for a fracture. There are some safe pain medications available for guinea pigs. Hopefully he continues to improve!
