Suggest Remedy For Soreness In Knee

I'm 21. Roughly 5'4". I fractured both my hip and left femur almost two years ago in a car accident (we were at a stop, waiting for the guy ahead of us to pull into his driveway when some dude plowed into us going 60). I had a bar put in my femur and nothing was done with my hip. I was able to walk (aided with a cane) after two month but I still cannot walk/stand for more than an hour without pain/discomfort (severe enough to not be able to bare even half of my weight on my left leg). Cracking my hip used to alleviate the pain (something I never used to before the accident) but now it does nothing. My knee has a constant tingling/prickling sensation (like having your foot fall asleep), there's pain while kneeling, some pigment mottling but that's rather infrequent and the surrounding skin of the knee is sometimes puffy, like there's a sack of water beneath it. Had a clean MRI on my knee and apperently fine x-rays on both my hip and femur. I've even tried making myself to believe that I was making the pain up and tried to work out a few times (light biking on a stationary bike) but to no avail... something's wrong...
