What Causes Difficulty In Walking After An Injury?
Hi, about 9 days ago I fell on a bent knee, ever since I haven t been able to walk or put weight on my leg because my lower leg keeps giving out, it doesn t hurt to bend my leg or move it but only to put weight on it, could you tell me what s wrong? And how I can treat this for recovery, thanks

Hi welcome to the health care magic
Here you are having history of injury by gravitational force while walking...
Hence it seems to tendon, ligament like injury and so that pain can be from musculoskeletal pain...
For that you should get checked with x ray of local part and according to cause further specific treatment given
If needed crap bandage will be prescribed
Ibuprofen 200 mg BD for five days can be taken
Take care
Consult orthopedic surgeon for examination with keeping all this in mind
