No. It's not. That's what they're there for.
You'll be putting your knee through a lot more on the journey, so don't let it get upset from the outset.

Use the wheelchair whenever possible! You’ve seen this week how your knee got upset. You don’t want to spend your vacation in unnecessary pain.

Hello - an update on my knee. I have elevated and iced intensively for the last 2 weeks and the knee is now just a wee bit puffy. I have started back on my battery assisted bicycle and used the assisted power when going up hill or into stiff wind (previously I was pushing myself to see how much I could do without help!). On return home, I have rested and elevated etc and the knee is responding well. The greatest insults to my knee seem to be standing around or sitting for a long time with my knee bent (car journeys). I have not been back to the gym yet but am doing gentle exercises at home . Thank you for all your advice. I will try to be sensible.
