I broke my hip back in january and have been off crutches for a week (I can walk 1 mile ish).
I was wondering if anybody out there had also broken their hip, and if so, do they have any advice.?
My biggest question is:- how long, after beginning to walk without cruches, should I wait before I start back on the bike?
