While i was playing football at my school i fell down on my side, resulting in dislocation of my bone from the knee. My teacher located the bone back to its position from then after consulting a local doctor i have been on bed reset for 3-4 days . If i walk sometimes the bone moves again sideways like its going to dislocate again . What should i do

You cannot walk without a knee immobikiser for 6 weeks. Your should take rest for a week, themselves tart walking only with a knee immobiliser on. Apply ice packs locally.
Health Tips
If the torn structures do not heal in proper tension, it may result in recurrent dislocation.
