This sounds terrible but talk to a physical therapist. He can refer you to one so your insurance will cover it. Honestly, I always like to listen to people who are specialists in the rehabilitation of an injury. Orthopedists have their specific areas of expertise but they've really only got a 'minor' in exercise, it's not their main focus.

It's like when your family doctor tries to give you nutrition or exercise advice, he's there to heal peoples sickness, not pretend he's a nutritionist or a Physical Therapist. An Orthopedist will be more advanced in this section, but I've still heard some of the WORST exercise advice for rehabilitating an injury coming from them. I've known people with knee injuries who were told to do Leg Extensions and people with shoulder injuries who were told to do BTH presses and pull downs.

If your injury is serious, talk to a physical therapist.
