If it was my left one that had been broken, it wouldn't have made a blind bit of difference to me in an automatic.
If you can hack the pain which the smallest of vibrations can trigger you are fine to drive.
If you want to be official about it tell the insurance company. They may want you to be signed as fit to drive by a doctor.
With me I asked the doc before the insurance company and he refused to sign me off for a minimum of 6 to 8 weeks, so I didn't bother telling insurance and just drove.
With you it's not even your right leg and you drive an auto, so really can't see any reason why you can't drive.

I'm very glad and relieved for your potential victims you were lucky enough not to have an accident that harmed other people during that time.
