Question Peaches - suddenly lame cockatiel

Peaches - suddenly lame cockatiel
I recently adopted a female lutino cockatiel. She began laying eggs - 9 to date. I took her to my avian vet and when she arrived, she seemed in good health. Midway through his examination, she began favoring one of her legs. The vet said that he doesn't feel an egg in her lower abdomen at this time and seems to think she may have just pulled a muscle while struggling during the examination. She does have feeling in it and nothing is broken - she can grasp a bit, but doesn't put weight on it. He gave her an anti-inflamatory and said to just let her rest and watch her closely. He also then gave her a Lupron shot. ANY SUGGESTIONS? Should I be worried?
