What Causes Soreness In Finger From Injury And Severe Pain In Legs Along With It?

I have a friend who cut her finger bad. The dr did not give her a tetanus. Her finger is still sore but right after this happened she started having sever pains in her legs. She can barely walk because of the pain. She s been to the emergency room who drew blood work and xrayed the finger. They said they saw nothing. Today the family dr she sees ran the same test and nothing. She took a text for Rocky Mountain fever. My son had it and my friend doesn t have any of those symptoms. What would you recommend?

the symptoms your friend has are suggestive of infection, what type can be seen by tests, also her finger would be affected by injury and may not be the part of leg symptoms.
