Suggest Remedy For Severe Pain In Ankles, Knees And Calf Muscles Post Multiple Falls

I have had recent repeated falls. I fell three days ago. During the fall it felt like the bone from my knee to my ankle was being twisted. I ve been unabletowalk on my leg without having it tightly wrapped, using a flexible knee brace, compression sock and cane. There hasn t been a lot of swelling but both sides of my knee, my calf muscles and the bone on the front of my leg are all very tender. If my leg is not wrapped above the knee, I cannot put any pressure on it.
