Lower back fracture need help!!!!

Hello,
4 weeks ago I fractured 1 of the vertebrae in my lower back, after the injury i actually played through a soccer match in pain. I then went to see a chiropractor as instructed and had an x-ray, to my complete surprise i was told i had a compression fracture. I was basically told to rest for 8 weeks without doing anything and that my body will heal itself. But after reading about it online i saw that i might be able to do some exercises. So i was wondering if I could some advice from people on this forum. NOTE: Im 15 and I fractured my bike through landing badly on a motorbike jump. I would really appreciate some help here as im not taken seriously.

Thank you

Jonathan
