When Can I Start Walking After Eminentia Fracture Scopic Surgery

I had a little bike accident five weeks ago and got an eminentia fracture (type 3 or 4) on my left leg. I had surgery two weeks ago in the Netherlands. They arthroscopically replaced the eminentia into my tibia.

I was wondering if there are orthopedics experienced with this type of fracture? My orthopedic in the Netherlands said I have to walk on crutches for six weeks and I can use my leg with only slight weight. My orthopedic in Bali said I could start walking two weeks after scopic surgery. What do you know about this?

My knee feels good. Most of the swelling is gone already. I can flex only until 80 degrees, extension goes quite well. I'm a 27 years old healthy woman.
