How Soon Can Recovery From Structural Fracture Of The Vertebrae Be Expected?

I was diagnosed with a structural fracture of the C7 vertebre. Dr. stated to wear the neck brace for three months and I could go back to work but not lift anything heavy. I work in a warehouse. My work may not let me go back unless I have full recovery. Should I seek another opinion?
