Healing time on knee caps

[twsnow22]

so today i crashed super hard and my knee was killing.. then i went to the doctor and they said it was broken ( one clean break through me knee cap). i was wondering how long this would take to heal... cuz i really want to ski soon

Unless you live in the north pole its time to hang up the skis

i think healing time would depend on how much stress you put on it. i say take it as easy as you can to guarantee the quickest recovery

just do what the doc says:

Raise the leg above your heart for the first couple days
ice it for the first 3 days , then heat it
after a week, restrict movements to minimal and asks doc/physical therapist what exercisezs you can do to keep the joints/ligaments strong
