A couple weeks ago I had a fall from 18' and landed on my heel and wrist. I was very fortunate to only have some bruising and didn't break anything or worse.
With some moderate compression and consistent movement and exercise, I've been able to see progress and recovery every day and it's been humbling to work through limitations and realize that all the work we do in the gym prepares us not only for life outside of the gym but to maintain functionality during injury and in times of need.
I saw a version of the video below 10 years ago and loved it and have been making use of the theory ever since. Two years ago the video was expanded and redone. It's a great watch and I think everyone should see it.
Stay strong and stay safe out there.
