I am so confused and maybe different states have different issues but I called over to one of our local trauma hospitals and asked what they would do. They told me by law they would have to treat you. Of course I'm in California where the health care system is crumbling to bits due to all the treatment of illegal immigrants and their families. Many trauma centers have had to close down because of this issue but that's another soap box item for another day.
Call home, speak with your mother or father, an aunt, uncle, grandparent, friend someone, anyonw and ask they to help you. You so risk losing your leg to gangrene or staph. Please, please keep the wound clean an watch for signs of infection (although that red angry skin tells me you are already there).
Cripes I hate to see this go one but there are medical options - it's not like people are left out in the cold when they need help.
