If she did, then that's someone on Yang's side; Pyrrha could reveal that when she fought Mercury and used her semblance against him, she noticed he has prosthetic legs. Then she could explain this, they could do a bit of a search, find out that he wasn't taken to a hospital somewhere nearby and that the ambulance airship was taken to odd places before being returned. Even if they check Mercury into a hospital to cover their tracks, they'd still get found out if someone tried to visit him since he's laying low in a warehouse somewhere.

If she didn't, then oh well. Too bad, so sad. It would be an interesting person to come to Yang's rescue though, but I suppose she's a bit distracted with the Autumn Maiden stuff. There is no indication that Pyrrha would know that Mercury has prostectics because Pyrrha was trying to move his legs by affecting the greaves but inadvertently affected the internal mechanisms as well giving it away to Mercury.
