You were lucky - I came off my motorbike and broke mine back in 2009. Didn't heal after 6 weeks, and it then took another 10 months to get scheduled in for surgery. Currently getting physio as I iritated it again falling on a bouncy castle at a stag do! :'(
The consultant said they needed to get me in straight away before it started to properly knit together in the wrong place.
I'm so glad I pushed to get seen earlier than my scheduled 6wk appointment. They had to unknit it as it was after 4.
