You should talk to your doctor about it.
I actually have an appointment here in about 2 hours for this exact reason. Just seeking if anyone else has had any experience with this kind of injury, and what they did during their down time to stay active.
My dr recommended physical therapy. I went to an orthopedist. Told me to jog/walk versus run and reduce length/distance. Recommended to continue doing squats and deadlifts and to reduce weight. Add more stretching and planks. Prescribed an NSAID called Meloxicam. I haven’t started therapy yet but I am walking 3 miles per day to stay active at 3.5-4 mph. Jogging doesn’t feel comfortable. I ordered a brace to see if that will help.
