See orthopedist: You really need the care of a bone doctor and perhaps even someone specialized in osteoporosis. The recovery depends on what is the cause for your problem as well as the extent of the disease process.

Orthopedic opinion: There are multiple issues going on here and your treatment and recovery would be based on symptoms and imaging findings. This is best conveyed to you by your family doctor or an orthopedic specialist
