Paralized lizard?

I have a couple of lizards that I caught and decided to keep as pets, and I've had them for about three weeks now and so far they've been doing well, but just a couple days ago one of them stopped using his back legs, it's like they are paralized. He just drags his rear end whenever he walks. I don't know what kind of lizard it is, but he's quite small so I think he's pretty young. I first noticed the problem when I saw him laying on the floor of his cage, and when I opened the cage he got up and started dragging his hind legs when he went to hide.
If anyone knows how this could have happened or how I can fix it please let me know.
Thanks!
