Okay, yesterday I went out and bought a pair of shoes with great support around the ankle area. Now I am experiencing pain at the top of the back of the shoe…..is this just something that I have to deal with or does anyone have any suggestions to relieve the burning. I am still wearing a soccer compression sock with the shoe. I did consider wearing a lower cut shoe, but opted for the shoe with more support around the ankle. Any sock ideas, etc.?
You guys are awesome and I so appreciate all of your advice.!!! And the healing goes on…….

Wondering how to know when it’s okay to drive with ATR right foot…..I understand that the doc has to release you, but does the PT have a say as to letting you know that it’s time to talk to your doc about being able to drive? I am waiting for authorization to start PT and am at 8 weeks post-op. Next doc appt. in 6 weeks…do I just wait until week 14 when I see doc and talk to him then about driving? Or does the PT have a say as to whether I am ready to push the pedal to the metal? Would the PT suggest that I talk to the doc, if things are moving along before my 14 week appt.? What is the average time people start driving, with doc’s release?
Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!!!! Really appreciate it!
