Do you have Public Health System in your Country? Do you like it? Or would prefer it to be private? (NHS related)

Public health services like the NHS are "meets minimum". Your problem isn't really life threatening or anything, so fundamentally you don't need "next day" treatment.

There is no law in the UK that says that you can't also have private healthcare. You can call BUPA (or a private UK healthcare provider of your choice) for a paid checkup.

I suspect that a private healthcare provider will also just say "stop wasting our time and let it heal by itself for 6 months".  They'll just use nicer words, and charge you for it.

Yes but this is not good right? Let it heal by yourself in 6 months, taking painkillers for the period amd maybe even having a permanent injury due to wrong healing does not seem to be the best approach.

I dunno - why do you think that your body won’t heal right?  Why do you think that the doctors can do something better?  When you went to the hospital did they say that you may need surgery?

When I broke my leg, it took months to heal.  Other than aligning bones (and sometimes pinning them) doctors can’t really do much.  Even physiotherapy is nothing more than “here’s a leaflet with some stretching excercises to do”.

 

just book an appointment with your GP and have a chat.  Prepare to be disappointed and get a cushion and Netflix subscription...
