Hello internets, give me advices!

So my knee is giving me major problems right now (the summary version is "intense pain, inability to hold weight, and clenching/spasming when I use it", which of course makes bathroom transfers quite fun. It seems like an FOP thing, which means it can't be treated directly, but I'm thinking it might be a good idea to wrap it (with an Ace bandage or suchlike) to give a bit more support and try to minimize secondary stresses (hurting the muscles/tendons because of adaptations to the current situation.

Only problem is, I know pretty much nothing about wrapping knees.

Any suggestions or advice?

(Note my knee is at a roughly 90-degree angle and this is not optional, so I can't e.g. wrap it straight or anything.)

How about no
