I arrived in LA on Tuesday after a 14 hour flight, I felt a twinge in my knee on the 2nd day and by the evening I was in A fair amount of pain, I decided to go out the next day anyway and limped around. However since yesterday morning I have had little movement - been resting, iceing, compression, elevating it, ibuprofen etc. It does feel like its getting better I can now put weight on it however it still feels stiff and hurts if i try to force it to bend.
I want to get on with my holiday but obviously don't want it to return worse the next day.
Should I just continue doing what I'm doing? And when will I know that I'm ready to walk again? Will my knee bend without pain or do I need to walk a bit to solve it or stretch anything?
Any help would be really appreciated. I am stuck in a tiny room in LA and my holiday is a contender for vholidays from hell at the moment.
As a side note I seem to suffer from ankle and foot injuries when I overuse my feet. For instance I joined a gym a couple of weeks ago after two days I was laid up in bed for 2 days trying to fix them again.

I also found chnging my shoes made a difference. I kept o the shoes I used before surgery but changed to new ones with a very slight increase in the heel but still flat and it has made it easier. The side of the new shoe isnt worn so it could be the gait
I understand bout the ankle but mine was caused by fractures 7 years ago
try & enjoy some of your holiday even if its Macy's LOL
