It looks like he got hit low behind the shoulder into the lower belly region. And is this the same buck in the lower videos two days later?

Looks like he was either shot or skewered by another buck. The wound looks low enough that it might have missed everything vital. He still seems interested in the doe so it may not be too bad.

All I think I see is that his right forearm is swollen all the way to the knee. I see a darkness on his right lower chest behind the front leg. I also see some dark spots on his rump. On his side is looks like a line rather than a small circle so I think I agree that he was gored in a fight.

The limp must be from sore muscle tissue on or behind the right shoulder. his knee and ankle areas do not look swollen.

I can't tell if the dark areas are clotted blood or simply bad bruising. If he was skewered there by an arrow, I am thinking those are fatal areas like liver etc.

Or since all the dark areas are about the same height thus more horizontal, it could be the bumper of a vehicle hit him.

you should have been using a Ridgetec Lookout.

I zoomed in on the chest region to get a better look. Here is what I found there... there is definitely some redness and edema in those areas.

My deer hunting partner is a doctor, after a day of hunting I like to put my dictionary away and visit this forum to communicate with "regular" guys. And now your pulling this "edema" stuff

I'm sure the man had something to do with it!
