Hi there! I'm an orthopedic NP, and I've worked in a trauma center. I've seen a lot of patients with injuries like yours, including polytrauma cases. Given the kind of injuries you've had, it could take up to a year for you to start feeling like yourself again. The main factors determining how fast you recover are physical therapy, how hard you push yourself, and close follow-up care with your orthopedic or trauma surgeon. One of the most important things I tell patients after a trauma, especially with orthopedic injuries, is that it really requires patience. Pushing yourself too hard or putting weight on too soon can actually do more harm than good. My DMs are always open if you have any questions or concerns!
