Physical Therapy: Your doing the right things. A Physical therapist may be able to over see your progress. They usually work under a doctors orders. Ask for a referral/doctors order to PT.

Second opinion.: Not knowing the exact nature of your injury, the diagnostic tests (if any) used to confirm your diagnosis, the treatment regimen since your injury, makes commenting on specifics difficult. Six weeks seems like an excessive time to still behaving problems, at least to the extent you state. You need a second opinion to make sure that other issues are not present.
