I'm currently being treated for a lateral femoral condyle fracture and wearing a long knee brace without surgery. Just got my MRI reports. Wondering if there are any specific exercises, suggestions, or special meds that could help speed up recovery? Really want to get back on my feet faster.

I had an arm wrestling match at the hostel and completely broke my humerus, right above the elbow and below the shoulder. They did an operation two days later and used something called an extra-articular plate. How long is it going to take for this to heal fully? And when will I be able to hit the gym again? I'm really curious and a bit worried about my recovery timeline.
