Considering your situation, it sounds like you could use some physical therapy to speed up the healing process of your injury. The nurse probably didn't mention it, because it is not a necessity for it to heal properly. However, when taking into account your level of activity, I think some physical therapy could benefit you. If you can tolerate the discomfort you are experiencing, and just work through the pain, it may not be necessary, but some pt could definitely help you speed things up.
