Firstly, have you consulted a doctor as to whether archery of any kind is advisable while your injury heals........sometimes there is just no way round it if it means sustaining a long term injury.

Depending on the seriousness of your injury I don't think just changing to compound will solve the problem. Low poundage and go easy until it's fully recovered, then some strengthening exercises to get you up to speed ?
