    There is no tablets that you will take that will speed your healing. Time is what is necessary. If you are in good health, 6 weeks ( or more) may be necessary.

      I would hope your doctor would discuss this with you. Since I have not evaluated your injury I can not be certain.Generally speaking, complete bed rest is not indicated for a hairline crack. I can not however say that you can walk to work, as I do not know the circumstances, distance, the cast or brace you are in etc.
