Please don't try to hobble...it won't make (force) you to walk quicker or better, just give you a rotten gait to overcome later. My PT always said to use the crutch as long as you need to so as NOT to limp. When you're strong enough (and those glute muscles DO need time to get stronger) magic will happen, I promise. @Debru4 gave you good advice. Everyone is different but some stories are truly far fetched. I was using one crutch up to 12 weeks and yes I was getting frustrated too. But don't be sad, just go with the flow and you'll get there...with good form, to boot. .
