fallen and can't get up

i have fallen on a cement sidewalk and landed right on my knee that i had the osteotomy surgury on.  there was a piece of the sidewalk missing and i rolled my ankle and went down. my surgury was 3 and 1/2 years ago but i have had constant pain ever since. now that i have fallen its even more pain.

Hey Bonnie!

Well, without a clinical evaluation it would be difficult to determine the cause of your pain. Possibilities that may need to be considered include re-injuries such as fractures, ligament/ tendon injuries, inflammation, degeneration etc. It would be best to have this evaluated by an orthopedician for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate management.
Hope this is helpful.

Take care!
