Knee

For the last few weeks I have had a bad knee. I don't know what I have done but it came up in a massive bruise.

Now let me explain...

I have previously had an operation, called a lateral release,  on this knee in 2005. This was performed because my knee cap was miss tracking causing pain and dislocation.

I thought that that was that all fixed, well for 8 years all fixed. But then this bruise came up.

Now I have pain, clicking and grinding noises coming from my knee every time I walk.

I made an appointment with the GP who said that I needed to rest for two weeks and it should go away!
How am I supposed to do this when I have two kids who I have to walk to school and back three times a day. This trip is three miles every day. Good for my weight loss not good for my knee.
