My mouse is limping and has red, bent joints. Is he in pain?

Question

My mouse likes to run, constantly. I think he has hurt his back legs. I took the wheel out, and I checked how he walks. His back side limps, and his joints are red and bent forward. However, he still walks around. I'm worried. Pet's info: Small Animal | Mouse | Male | unneutered

Poor Math! I would limit his activity for a bit as best as possible and if he continues limping for more than a day, seems in pain, or new symptoms appear, seek out veterinary care in person to have him examined and treated.
