Guest guest Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 Hi , when my knee was inflamed I was told to stay off it during times of inflamation.........still can exercise it but without the weight bearing. I used crutches when I had to do any amount of walking and I suppose this helped maintain the joint. Please talk to your doctor and see what he/she suggests for you.
