How Can Difficulty In Getting Up After A Knee Injury Be Treated?
I fell Wednesday of last week, I went to urgent care they took X-rays nothing broken. But it is hard to get up can the fibula be bruised he said knee was bruised. I can not put weight on it. Can I do anything, or if bone is fractured would it allow me to put any weight on it. It is easier getting up with higher chairs.

Hello,
It will be a minor contusion. Nothing much to worry and the symptoms will settle in a couple of days.
As a first line management, you can take analgesics like Tramadol or Aceclofenac for pain relief.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
