non displaced Fractured Heel

Hi,

I fractured my heel bone 3 weeks ago falling off the laddar while painting. I was in the emergency room over 10 hours going through x-ray and CT scan. I had a full splint and were on cructches. I had a follow up the following week and were giving a cam boot for support. It's almost 3 weeks and i have a follow up tomorrow. My foot has been stiff and swallon whenever i don't have it elevate. I am not in any pain but still can't put any pressure on it as per doctor's order. The bottom of the foot is still brusied after 3 weeks and i have use ice and heat but it's still there even thought it doesn't hurt anymore when i rub it but it's still sore. At times i can wiggle my toes freely when it's not swallon but it still feel very stiff when i don't have it elevate. Does anybody have similiar situation? How long does it take to heal? I am a 36yr old who is very active in sports and is tired of sitting at home resting. Any suggestion are welcome.

Jay
