Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

he has injured one of the tendons or ligaments that help keep his knee in place, connecting it to the surrounding muscle and bone.

There is a disconnection of the muscle and bone this is the reason he wobbled sideways when he started walking. There is a need for him to see the doctor so as to set the knee back in place and avoid further issues.
