The best answer is: **Tell him NOT to move the injured leg.**
In such a situation, it's important to minimize any further injury. Moving the injured leg could exacerbate any potential fractures or damage. Instead, you should ensure that he remains still and wait for medical assistance to evaluate and treat the injury properly.
