Hydra is a drug.

Use doctor bags if you haven't...

a doctor should heal you if you ask them to. may cost money though

Sounds like you have hardcore mode on, in which sleeping won't heal the crippled limb. You can turn it off if you want and then try again.

Going to a doctor should always heal the crippled limb, unless you don't have enough caps.

Are you sure you're crippled?

Are you using it from the Pip-Boy's status tab, or the inventory tab? AFAIK, a doctor's bag can only be used from the status tab.

Have you saved recently? Sometimes with this game, if you get a glitch, the best solution seems to be to load an earlier save.

At the very least Doc Mitchell should've healed the crippled leg, since you went to him.

This may sound like a dumb question, but are you sure it's actually still crippled? Is the condition on the status screen down? Because... the Vault boy mascot on the status screen is drawn like it's missing a foot, that's normal. ;)

it's crippled, my right leg is missing a foot

+ it says im crippled and i cant walk or run as fast

[Pat's Cat]

Well, assuming you play on hardcore (since sleep doesn't heal you), still a doctor or doctor's bag (to be used on the status screen by clicking on the body part, not from out of the inventory) should fix crippled body part.
I can see how one might mess up with the doctor's bag if new to the game, but since you said you went to Doc Mitchell and paid him to heal you, there's really no room for error there. :o

So it would seem it really is some kind of glitch. Never had this one, so can't help you out there sadly. Hope you can get it fixed.

A doctors bag from the aid menu (or just pressing the Status menu hotkey without selecting a limb) will heal all limbs by a small amount.

Are you using any mods or have you used any console commands that could have incorrectly changed the base health for your limbs?

Is the value shown when you use this command anything other than 100?

player.getbaseav rightmobilitycondition

Which value is shown when you use this one?

player.getav rightmobilitycondition

Ordinarily you could heal your right leg with this...

player.restoreav rightmobilitycondition 100
