The fracture healing time was significantly shorter in the [Forteo] 20 µg/day group than the placebo group, suggesting that teriparatide accelerates fracture healing.18 https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19594305/
You might ask for a short course of Forteo to aid recovery. It may also improve pain levels.
Do you know why sweating is a factor. I know we lose calcium when we sweat, but can that be the reason.
Best luck.

@gently He said to avoid sweating for the first two weeks for wound healing. I will ask about the Forteo thanks for the link.
