Have been out of cast for two weeks after fracturing my ankle, no surgery needed. I also damaged my knee which they have not really looked at. I a, suffering pain and also swelling from knee to foot. Pysio offered, feeling a bit down. Any advice would be gratefully received.

Make sure you don't have a clot I was given the go ahead to bear weight and the first 2 days were agony, is your leg red, hot or swollen.
Just make sure because immobility is fertile ground for blood clot.
Also why haven't they addressed your knee? Did you hurt both at the same time ?
I'd be going back. You should be informed about what is happening to your body. Were you in a boot. Are you walking even.
I am not in a boot, can walk on it a little unaided or with a crutch. It just feels really vulnerable.
I am just not sure what to do, knee swollen as is leg to ankle.
