Another crutches question?

I know I have asked a few crutches question but I need some advice. I was supposed to use crutches sience monday but I didn't(so uncomfy) but I think that if I don't my other leg is going to fall off from being overused(limping can really tire ones legs) I am definetly using them tomorow but what do I say to all the people that have been looking at me w/out crutches all week. my other knee is popping out now at various times from being so overworked. I told my gym teacher that It was feeling a little better but it has stayed the same since monday(not better nor worse) what should I say.

say you slipped and it hurts like hell so you have to use crutches, also fold some towels and use rubberbands to keep them on the rubber things that go under your armpits oh and tell the people to fck themselves if they ask why your using crutches.

that you didnt want to use them because they are uncomfertable but now you just cant limp nomore so you need too..Who cares what they think anyways!! lol

follow up with your orthopedist and stay off of Yahoo.

Just say that you're hurt and the doctor gave you the crutches (they did didnt they?)
Yes they are uncomfy and they hurt your pits bad but you cant limp around all the time it will get worse (trust me I tried on Tuesday and it got worse)
Try putting washclothes, foam, or pads on the part where your armpits go and secure them with a rubberband, velcro, or hot glue. And you can cover the padding with like fleece or felt or something. I used fleece and it looks cute!
Also, make sure the cruthces are set to your hight, makesure they are not too low or else you'll be hunching over. I accidently had them set at an inch lower yesterday and it hurt bad so the doctor set them an inch higher and it feels better.
Hope you get better!

to those who ask you, say that you where trying school without them to eercise your leg. Say to your gym teacher that it has moved in feeling by 10%. Then tomarro put on som clean kitchen towels and if you have felt ir craft cotten put that on and the the towel. But you should try to do at least a forth of what the gym class is doing to exercise it more.try whereing 2 shirts to help your underarms as well.
