A member asked:
Patella dislocation how long does it take to walk after a patella dislocation? i can hardly move at all.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
This can be: Quite painful. I assume it was reduced (put back in place). Also and unstable injury initially so high chance it will happen again if you go back to vigorous activity too soon. If you can not bear weight at least work hard on range of motion.
