A doctor has provided 1 answer

Listen to your doc: Your doctor should be able to help you make this decision based on your pain level, range of motion, strength, functional status and appearance of your x-rays. Generally speaking, many with good outcomes can safely return to sports in 4-6 months after this injury.
