However, you absolutely must do the physical therapy they recommend and get on your feet as soon as possible. Also, you need to look at your diet! Be sure you are getting the proper amounts of calcium, magnesium, vitamins, protein, and more. And hydration! And once you are healed, please consider resistance training with weights. You can increase your bone density! You don't want this to happen again!
