2 week old kittens leg is doubled in size

My one year old cat Serrina Rose Lynn had a litter of six kittens 2 weeks ago. Just about 3 to 4 days ago we were exterminating the runt of the group. We come to find that his/hers left leg is very swollen compared to  the other leg. When examining the lump it was very squishy and red in color. We also come to realize she has very long limbs compared to any of the other kittens. We would like to know if we should be concerned or is it going to be okay. By the way the lump when felt caused no pain what so ever.

hi, finally your posting arrived on the right forum...this is the CAT community and we welcome you. unfortunately its been 3 days since your question, I do hope by now the leg is alright...all I can tell you is that IMO this kitten really needs to see a Vet, the swelling isn't normal and something is wrong I wouldn't want to poor little thing to loose the leg please see a Vet and let us know how things are okay...♥

I think you've mistakenly posted this question in the wrong forum.  This is a migraine/headache forum - if you go t the listing of forums, you shoudl be able to find a veterinary or pet forum that would be better able to answer your question.
