I have a HUGE problem.

My knee dislocates about 10 times a day, and my leg folds strangely in half when it happens.

I am now wearing an immobilizer for support and stability so I can walk on my own, but everytime I take it off, it just happens again.

Plus the swelling is ridiculous.

Do any of you recommend anything I can do/try to help my knee with the dislocations, pain & swelling?

The typical RICE stuff:

Rest
Ice
Compression
Elevation (above your heart)

And see your Dr. *sigh*

Thanks Steph. :) That's all it seems as if I can do with anything anymore. *sigh*

Pretty much LOL I told Dr. F the other day that I have more braces than real joints now!

Yeah, I hear that! I think we'd be good brace salesmen for different brace companies!
