I wonder if wrapping and ace bandage around the knee before walking or biking might help, just to keep everything in alignment when your working it.
And for the bike mounting, I mount from the pedal, not the ground. I stand over the top tube, put a foot on the pedal, and as the pedal moves down, the bike starts moving and I raise my butt into the saddle. With your foot on the pedal you get 3 or 4 inches higher than the ground.
