it hurts way worse the 2nd time around. I fractured my rib and then kited like a week later and went ahead and broke it, so my advice would be to listen to at least half of what the doc says!!! i think about 3 or 4 weeks would have pretty well healed me, doc said 6 weeks, but it ended up being like almost 2months before it was over with since i re-injured it, and another month till the swelling went down. I actually still have a lump there. But if you chill out and let it heal you should be at least lawn mowin' in a few weeks. bummer dude, sorry to hear it
