Why did she use her foot to push the crate? Should she have asked someone to assist her in moving the crate so she can get the equipment? What other options did she have to move the crate? Why was the crate there in the first place?

For a damaged knee, depending on how bad it is... going to the doctors, getting x-rays, taking pain medication etc.
