Resolved question:
I FELL LAST WEEK. Twisted my knee and bruised it in the several attempts to get up. I finally had to call the fire felt to come and get me up. I am a very large woman at 425 lbs. I have no kneecap and have torn the monarchs in both knees. After a week it is not much better. What I want to know is what will help it heal fastest? Staying off it or walking on it?

Hello.
Thank you for your query at DoctorSpring.com.
It looks like you have a severe injury to your knee. Your excess weight is also a problem. Since your injury is around a week old, then at this stage rest will be very helpful.
You should consult an orthopedic surgeon so that present status of your injury can be evaluated.
Feel free to ask queries.
With best wishes.
